An out of the blue tweet hit my feed this evening from New York Times reporter, Brooks Barnes stating that the Dark Lord of the Sith himself, Darth Vader, will appear in a special ABC primetime re-broadcast of Star Wars Rebels episode on Oct. 26. When pressed further about the return of James Earl Jones as the iconic voice, the reply from a Disney spokesperson was “By order of the Empire, I decline to comment“.
