Star Wars: Inferno Squad

An unexpected project but a welcome and personal favorite not just because the project itself was so cool (though it was) but because Janina Gavankar, Iden Versio herself, got wind that Iden’s backstory was being written and wanted to know more! She reached out to me, wanting to learn so that she could give more weight to her performance knowing about Iden’s history, and I gave her the Cliff Notes version. Voice actors may enjoy their work and be fond of the characters they portray, but just like regular actors, for most it’s simply the job. To have someone like Janina not only be interested, but want to know about, AND be incredibly gracious when it came to supporting it and me—let’s just say it’s rare and precious. -- Christie

The Rebellion may have heroes like Jyn Erso and Luke Skywalker. But the Empire has Inferno Squad.

After the humiliating theft of the Death Star plans and the resulting destruction of the battle station, the Empire is on the defensive. But not for long.

In retaliation, the elite Imperial soldiers of Inferno Squad have been called in for the crucial mission of infiltrating and eliminating the Partisans — the rebel faction once led by notorious Republic freedom fighter Saw Gerrera. Following the death of their leader, the Partisans have carried on his extremist legacy, determined to thwart the Empire — no matter the cost.

Now Inferno Squad must prove its status as the best of the best and take down the Partisans from within. But the growing threat of being discovered in their enemy's midst turns an already dangerous operation into a do-or-die acid test they dare not fail. To protect and preserve the Empire, to what lengths will Inferno Squad go . . . and how far beyond them?
