Rebels Recon - Season 1 Episode 12 Inside "Call to Action"
In Rebels Recon #1.12, StarWars.com goes behind the scenes of the Star Wars Rebels episode "Call to Action,” with creator interviews and much more!
In "Call to Action,” the notorious Grand Moff Tarkin comes to Lothal, planning to deal with the Ghost crew personally.

Stephen Stanton, who voiced Tarkin in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, returns to the role for Star Wars Rebels. “I was absolutely just bowled over,” he says of being asked to come back. It’s a particularly fun role for Stanton, as Tarkin is hugely powerful at this point, and everyone – heroes and villains – fear him. “There’s something that’s so terrifying about a severe British man,” Lucasfilm’s Pablo Hidalgo confirms.
