STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS: "BOUNTY HUNTER"
Lucasfilm has released a video preview from "Bounty Hunters," the episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars scheduled to air on Cartoon Network on Friday.
To view the clip, CLICK HERE.
Here's how Lucasfilm describes the episode:
"In a rural and remote corner of Felucia, Anakin, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka form an uneasy alliance with four deadly bounty hunters to protect a local village from Hondo Ohnaka and his band of pirates. But Hondo -- always the opportunist and never willing to play fair -- has plans of his own.
"Though he may be unprincipled, corrupt, self-serving and deceitful, Hondo represents a return to classic Star Wars archetypes -- including rogues and scoundrels such as Han Solo and Lando Calrissian. These intergalactic icons forged their reputations -- within that galaxy far, far away as well as among fans -- by playing by their own rules and distorting perceptions of right and wrong."
"People want to be seduced. People like a rascal. People like pirates...sort of, as long as they're not totally pillaging and wreaking havoc," said Jim Cummings, the voice of Hondo.
" "There's a certain fascination we have with these bad guys Ð bikers, pirates, scoundrels, all the Robin Hoods of the world. And Hondo's so much fun; I really dig him. He's not a master villain, but he won't be growing a halo anytime soon, either. The lovable rogue, the lovable rascal. You don't mind inviting him over for dinner, but you'd better count the silverware after he leaves."
