‘Star Wars: The Clone Wars’ Season 2 Goes Darker

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Cad Bane, Bounty Hunter

The second season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars promises to be darker and a little more violent.

Clone Wars supervising director Dave Filoni says, “The second season is a bit darker. We have the rise of the bounty hunters entering the war — bringing in a lot of chaos and a whole new set of problems for Anakin and Obi-Wan.”

The voice of Obi-Wan Kenobi, James Arnold Taylor, says the new season is amazing.

“I’ve seen some of the new episodes already completed, and they’re amazing,” Taylor said. “The action is there, and the humor is there. But we also see some new aspects of Obi-Wan and his past.”

The creators of the show are looking to capture that same cool mystique that bounty hunter Boba Fett brought to the original movies.  Unfortunately the setting of Clone Wars doesn’t lend itself to the inclusion of Boba Fett.  There’s no mention of Fett’s appearance in season two and if he does appear, he’d have to be a kid.  Instead, the good guys will have the ruthless Cad Bane to deal with (amongst others), a new Bounty Hunter from the planet Duro who is cruel, calculating, and more than willing to go head to head against the Jedi.

Clone Wars returns to the Cartoon Network for a second season this fall.

Also, the first season will be released on DVD and Blu-ray November 3, 2009 and will include extended directors cut versions of seven episodes.
