(CNN) - there will be an old familiar face in "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" tonight - at least to someone born before 1998.
Chewbacca, the most famous Wookiee in the Star Wars universe, is making its debut at the end of the third season of the animated series. And this time, not he is voiced by some bear in San Diego, California, as Chewbacca was in the movie "star wars" in 1977 (which is now called "New hope".)
Type-of-la-hair-original costume, Peter mayhew, voices the furry alien who brought to life every year and according to him, Chewie is a bit smaller and less experience than the Wookiee are familiar with most of the fans.
"Take the 'Clone wars' Chewie and put it against an image of the 'star wars' Chewie and they are almost identical", said. "The magic is around the eyes, but they also have the character of law."
It is probably because "Clone wars" supervising director Dave filoni Mayhew arrived at the Skywalker Ranch so that artists of the show could learn how was the original Chewbacca, moved to his head and facial expressions.
"Star Wars: The Clone Wars" is a lively spectacle of Lucasfilm and cartoon network (whose parent company, Time Warner, also owns CNN). Follows the adventures of the Jedi Knights - including a pre-Darth Vader Anakin Skywalker - during a time of turmoil in a Galaxy very, very far.
The films, "Attack of the Clones" (2002) and "The revenge of the Sith" feature (2005) action of "Clone wars", as well, but the cartoon takes place prior to the latter.
"Clone wars" has also has diving in characters of what George Lucas and the fans refer to as the universe spread of "star wars", something Filoni is totally geeking out.
"" The EU presents a lot of different ideas on all kinds of levels, and I do not think that I would say that there is something that is out of bounds. ""But I am very careful with it because there are huge, huge fan of those things in very specific niche, it said.
"As [the Jedi Tracker near human] Quinlan Vos was that great thing, I thought, when we called," he said.
"The interesting thing I noticed is that much of first contact children's with Star Wars 'Clone wars'." So they have a different point of view that as older fans that I speak at conventions. And the two groups have completely different concerns, Filoni said.
' Chicken robot,' Lucas and 'buffy'
For example, many young fans of "Clone wars" believe that the clones and Anakin Skywalker are really good, he said. But older fans who have seen "Revenge of the Sith" know that the final betrayal is brewing. And the older fans are known of Princess Leia, Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and other characters who, although they are not portrayed in "Clone wars," are linked to the events that take place within the series of cartoons.
Introduction of Chewbacca tonight could be the first time that some children come into contact with the Wookiee's height, adorable, Filoni said.
"Now, what this character that was in the 'Clone Wars' with the sofitano know, and when they see" a new hope "look to it and go, ' Oh, that is the man who was with the [Jedi padawan Anakin SkywalkerAhsoka Tano]",' which is completely different from how the older fans remember, "said."
Mayhew, always visibly at fan conventions, knows that today's children will love Chewie as well as the children during the 1970s and 1980s.
"I think it's because he is so friendly," said Mayhew. "And it is a teddy bear have." It is like the neighbor's to the side that takes care of everyone. It is the big brother, the blanket of security, and this attracts many people. "Chewie is very special to many people and especially for me."
The older fans Chewbacca's love for his heroism, said Kathleen Saracen, the Manager of Titan and Comics games in Smyrna, Georgia.
"In short, he's going to be a great hero and dies to save many lives," he said. "You get one of the deadliest in the Star Wars universe". A planet crashes into him. Thus, a moon, technically. "
Filoni knows there are those fans who study the introduction of Chewbacca.
"When we make a character like Chewbacca and there is a vast amount of continuity going on with the characters of icon that, we must be very careful." So in some respects less say about the characteristics of the best, you know? Even I have to some of those things to tell the stories that I'm telling you, "said Filoni."
Why would some fans as work whether or not "Clone Wars" gets right Chewbacca?
"Really grew up with these films," said Saracens.
"They were the things that we use when we were bored or be annoying." In my case, they weren't my parents home, and these were sometimes my babysitter. Not every day, but definitely seen "star wars" a ton when he was growing up. And I think that it is found in a place in his heart and his mind where to feel, see and all OK. "
