That's deeply shocking. He was just at celebration last month and seemed perfectly fine. Far too young.
Unconfirmed reports have been circulating the internet that Temuera Morrison will be portraying Rex in the show. Here is the original report. Take it with as much salt as you need. That said, it does seem likely in my opinion. https://onetakenews.com/2023/05/25/temuera-morrison-ahsoka-exclusive/
That would be fantastic if true. More Rex is always welcomed! Especially since we know he survived the Empire.
I can't imagine Rex not showing up, honestly. Though I think by this point he'd be pushing 80, physically. Then again, Dooku was in his 80s and still kicking ass during the Clone Wars.
Coud even just be voicing Rex in flashbacks with Anakin and Ahsoka. (Minor hope to see Ewan again as Obi-wan during the Clone Wars).
Yeah, he'd be the equivalent of mid-70s at Endor, no reason he couldn't still be active in some manner in his 80s.
Is it on a website nobody ever heard of? Check! Is it full of aggregated entertainment "news" and pointless fluff? Check! Does it cite no specific sources, or give absolutely no direct quotes? Check! Is the supposed story just a very common fan theory/supposition that while unconfirmed has like a 90% chance of being true (because: logic) and is just being passed off as some kind of scoop? Check! Is it bartering on those very favourable odds to trade as legitimacy if proven right? Check! Will the article be forgotten about and deleted if proven wrong while they post some other nonsense to draw in traffic? Double check! Thank you all for playing click-bait bingo!

New trailer no one is talking about, apparently. It's even better with the auto-generated spoilers as Ezra is apparently in France:
If Han makes it out of the asteroid after odds of 3720-to-1, running an article on a 80% certainty with a fake source seems... logical.
Rule of thumb: if a trailer isn't posted by the official channel, it's not real. Indeed; if I know a trailer for something I'd like to see is out I generally don't search for the trailer by title, I search for the official studio/production company/franchise channel, and go from there. YT is infested with fan edits and "concept trailers" posing as the real thing for clicks, and they always seem to float to the top of search results.
I didn't even search for it it was just a part of my home page as I was looking for YT video on another series. Rookie mistake on my part.
I have them blocked, but that only seems to affect recommendations not search results, which seems odd. It's kind of sad in a way since fan trailers used to be fun. Typically using footage from all kinds of sources creatively to come up with something that could exist, but doesn't (yet.) The classic one I remember the most from back in the day was a fan-made Hobbit trailer (made way before the actual movies became a reality) that stitched together bits from LorR & Dragonslayer, complete with the 'Requiem for a Dream' track that every trailer in the early 2000's seemed to use. While I'm sure ones like that still exists, these days it seems to have been drowned out by the fakes. Side note: I don't class things like this as a fan trailer in that sense, so much as a tribute video that still has a trailer-ish narrative structure. The distinction is that here there's no attempt at artifice. And this is when one should look *under* the thumbnail and see which channel posted it. Experience has taught me never to just click on a trailer unless I know it's from the official channel. Even if it crops up in recommendations, I regardless just automatically do a search for the appropriate channel and get it from the source. Even if it's legit, trailer re-posters often slap their own tags & intros on them, which I just find annoying.
