If they come face to face, what that would look like? We explore more in the series about the chips and what they begin to learn calls into question whether or not Crosshair had a choice, and choice is something that we talked about in the series. They know how you operate, they know your strengths and weaknesses, and I think a weakness for the Batch is that he is their brother so it’s not gonna be easy for them to go against him. It wasn’t that difficult to land on him being that guy, to be honest.”Īs far as the drama inherent with Crosshair now joining the Empire as the Bad Batch’s enemy, Corbett said, “There’s no better villain than one of your own because they know you the best. With Crosshair, it’s hard to justify why he would want to be part of all of that with the way that he focuses on his job so it sort of was a natural thing. When it came to deciding on who the traitor (or, if you look at it from his point of view, the loyalist) among the group would be, Rau remarked, “Crosshair’s a kind of contrary fellow, so it makes sense when you talk about this group of elite clones and the decisions they make trying to help this young fellow at the beginning of the premiere episode and then deciding to help another youngster at the end of the episode. With five members of the Bad Batch, some extra drama is thrown into the mix by having one member of the group actually want to go along with Order 66, which occurs here when Crosshair sides with the Empire over the rest of Clone Force 99.
It was great to start off that way.” THE NON-TRAITOR Crosshair in 'Star Wars: The Bad Batch' As Corbett explained, “We definitely wanted fans to feel like you were in the Clone Wars but then you are witnessing the end of the Clone Wars in the beginning of this series. In a bit of a passing the baton move, the premiere of The Bad Batch even begins with a Clone Wars-style voice over introduction by Tom Kane, something that doesn’t continue as the show goes on.
Stylistically, we wanted to carry on that style and also push it all the way through it.” That being said, they didn’t want everything to look exactly the same, and Rau noted, “We talked about it internally and worked it to great lengths so that we could push the style and get a little more fidelity in the designs and the assets and the animation and the camera language, the way everything is lit, how much depth and focus. The Bad Batch definitely is a spiritual successor to Clone Wars so it became pretty clear early on that we wanted to honor that style.” Since Star Wars: The Clone Wars, other animated Star Wars series like Rebels and Resistance have had their own distinct visual styles, so it wasn’t a given that The Bad Batch would continue the look of The Clone Wars, as it ultimately did, and Rau noted, “We talked about it a lot. CLONE WARS STYLE (L-R): Crosshair, Echo, Hunter, Tech and Wrecker in 'Star Wars: The Bad Batch' The Bad Batch’s creative force includes The Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Mandalorian’s Dave Filoni, along with Executive Producer Jennifer Corbett ( Star Wars: Resistance) and Executive Producer/Supervising Director Brad Rau ( Rebels, Resistance), with Corbett and Filoni co-writing the premiere episode, “Aftermath.”įandom spoke to Corbett and Rau about the events of the premiere, what was established, and what fans can expect as the series continues.
