ForceCast.net: ForceCast #338: Obi-Wan Trolls the Hilt

Posted by Eric on January 30, 2015 at 09:00 AM CST

The first standalone may have a new writer, and a random site has a strange rumor about Boba Fett in the movie. It's that kind of week, folks. We also discuss media appearances by Oscar "Gonk Droid" Isaac and Ewan "Real Talk On the Broadsaber" McGregor. Plus, Freddie Prinze Jr. teases big things for Kanan on Star Wars Rebels, and we take questions from our live, virtual-studio audience.
