New STAR WARS Shows Include LANDO, THE ACOLYTE, VISIONS, and A DROID STORY
Lucasfilm has announced a slate of new Star Wars shows! Lots of exciting things happening for Star Wars fans today. On top of the Ashoka and Rangers of the New Republic series, we’ve got the following:
A live-action Lando series is being developed by Justin Simien (Dear White People), which is in the early stages of development. I assume this will involve Donald Glover, but that’s not confirmed.
A live-action show titled The Acolyte, which is coming from Leslye Headland. It’s described as “a mystery-thriller that will take viewers into a galaxy of shadowy secrets and emerging dark-side powers in the final days of the High Republic era.”
There’s an animated series titled Visions, which is an Original Series of animated short films, that celebrates the Star Wars galaxy through the lens of the world’s best Japanese anime creators. It’s coming in 2021.
Then there’s an animated series titled A Droid Story, which is a special Star Wars adventure described as an epic journey that will introduce us to a new hero guided by R2-D2 and C-3PO.
This is all the information we’ve got for now on these, but we’ll keep you updated!
