"With this second special, we knew we had to do something a bit different, something more," adds co-creator Matt Senreich. "With that in mind, we decided to focus on the bounty hunters a bit and explore their stories. It's a geek-fest for us all."
"Episode II" will feature the returning voice talents of Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia, Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian, Ahmed Best as Jar Jar Binks, Seth MacFarlane as Emperor Palpatine, Breckin Meyer as Admiral Ackbar and Boba Fett, Conan O'Brien as Zuckuss and Donald Faison.
