Star Wars: Rebels fans are truly winning this season of The Mandalorian<\/a>, with season 3<\/a> episode 5 featuring an iconic character from the series.<\/p>\n

The latest instalment of the Disney Plus<\/a> series saw Pirate King Gorian Shard\u2019s (Carey Jones) crew return to Nevarro, and High Magistrate Greef Karga (Carl Weathers) call on the New Republic or help.<\/p>\n

Many fans recognised one of the New Republic officers instantly as Zeb, or Garazeb Orrelios, a previous captain of the\u00a0Lasan Honor Guard.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the first time Zeb has appeared in live action, played by actor Steve Blum, who voiced the character in Star Wars: Rebels.<\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s not the first time The Mandalorian has teased a Rebels crossover, with fans previously going wild over the appearance of a purrgil and speculating that it was a hint that another Rebels character, Ezra Bridger<\/a>, was on his way.<\/p>
