MegaCon 2014 is on its last day at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. Fans joined Peter Mayhew and Tom Kane at a Star Wars panel, where the two actors talked about their individual experiences with the iconic franchise. Both Amy Ratcliffe, writer for Fashionably Geek, IGN, Nerdist, and more, and Lillian Skye of Fangirls In The Force were present and livetweeting the event.
Tom Kane briefly mentioned Star Wars Rebels, specifically about voice actors from Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
Tom Kane says you'll hear some voice actors from Clone Wars in Star Wars Rebels. They'll be "in there somewhere." #starwars

Tom Kane says that Dee will probably be brought back for "monsters" in Rebels. And CW cast may voice minor characters #StarWarsRebels

Kane says Clone Wars actors probably won't consistently appear in Rebels because it's important to make it a different show.

With Dave Filoni on board as executive producer, it has been talked about that the chances are very likely that TCW actors may return to voice minor roles. Although this is not a confirmation, it further reinforces the fact that the talent is there and creators like Dave may tap into those resources as the series progresses.
Edit: Some video!
