Star Wars FanFilm The Padawan III 'Darkness Of The Republic' Information

At last, we received a trailer for the new up and coming Star Wars FanFilm titled 'Darkness Of The Republic', It is the third film in The Padawan Trilogy and it is unknown whether any more Star Wars FanFilms will be made by MB & Homeland.

Here is the brand new trailer:

In the trailer, it features several clips of different planets and clips of the main characters.
Returning in this movie is The Boy, the main character from both The Padawan films. He is joined by his Jedi Master Theo Kay who too appeared in The Padawan I & II.

The trailer features two new main characters, Cardell who is friends with The Boy. and Henri who is an Imperial working for The Empire and the movies main villain.

Portrayed by Jordan Crowther-Russell

 According to MB & Homeland there are 6 main characters, 4 of which appear in this trailer. But who are the other two? I guess we'll have to wait to find out in the next trailer.

Several Stormtroopers & Imperials appear in the trailer, as well as Darth Vader himself. MB & Homeland have said that even though Vader appears, he does not play a major part in the story and is not the main villain. Two Sith also appear in the trailer from the previous Padawan films. Darth Motalao & Kilt Potmonkay.

In this trailer, it features several different locations. MB & Homeland have revealed the names of these locations and what the planets are called.

The trailer features a forest planet which is called Jogana. Its neighbouring world is a rocky mountain planet called Riano. The snowy planet featured in the trailer is called Iris.

According to MB & Homeland there will be 5 planets featured in the movie. 3 of which we know of, the other two are unknown yet but MB & Homeland did reveal that one is from the Prequels, the other from the Original Trilogy.

The snow planet was filmed in Aviemore, Scotland on the Cairngorm mountain back in February 2016. Mark Bray said "The best part of filming was the local hikers walking past us and saying 'May The Force Be With You' It was very cold but the end result is incredible"

The trailer does feature two unnamed characters, One portrayed by Graham Bray & the other by Colin Bray.
Apart from those two, everyone featured in the trailer we have a name and information about.

The Future of MB & Homeland

In our most recent podcast we announced that we were thinking of closing the channel with in the next two years. This is because people like CEO Mark Bray will be going to University September 2017 and won't have time to manage the channel unless someone else became the CEO. It is possible that Mark will take a gap year from September 2017 to 2018 but this is uncertain at the moment. Either way the channel will close by September 2018.


We are going to keep the channel LIVE with all our videos on, we aren't deleting any of the films we've made but we just won't be creating content any more.

Things to look forward to:

• We are currently filming our brand new Doctor Who FanFilm Series. This will come out 16th July 2016 and will air up until Christmas day 2016. There will be a total of 9 episodes plus a 10th Anniversary movie. We are planning on making a Doctor Who movie next year because we don't have any plans to make another series but we are discussing it at the moment.
• We are currently finishing filming on a brand new season we are making called 'Political Rage' this series will have a total of 3 episodes and filming on a second season has already begun. Season one is scheduled to come out on the 22nd October 2016. Season two will probably come out Autumn 2017.
• We are currently in production of a new Star Wars FanFilm which will air 4th May 2017. This film is called 'Darkness Of The Republic' and it will star Mark Bray, Tom Ford, Jordan Crowther-Russell & Franki Lang. There are no plans to make any more Star Wars films after this but we are discussing it at the moment.
• We are still going to make comedy sketches every so often, the last one we made was in September 2015, hopefully a new one will be coming soon. We are also hoping to bring out a short film every year up until our closure.
• We are still making gameplays on the 25th of every month and we are still hosting 'Race To The White House' on the 10th of every month. Race To The White House probably won't be continuing next year because the election will have finished but we will still be making gameplays.
• Hopefully in 2017 we will be bring out a new monthly series to replace Race To The White House, this is currently being discussed and we will have information soon.
• News Update is still being produced and airing on the 15th of every month, this will continue every month until we close.
• Behind The Lens is still being made and coming out on the 20th of every month but it might not continue next year, that is being discussed at the moment.
• If Mark Bray did take a gap year from 2017 to 2018, we would probably produce a stand alone movie. This isn't definite yet but we'll know by May 2017.

A few members of MB & Homeland are planning on leave in September to go to university. Hopefully a few new people will be joining in a few months, at the moment no one really knows what they'll be doing next year, but we will try our hardest to keep the channel alive until September 2018. After that we will no longer be making content but all the videos will remain LIVE.
