STAR WARS: THE BAD BATCH Gets a Trailer for the Final Season! Surprise Character Returns!
Disney+ has released the trailer and a poster for the third and final season of Star Wars: The Bad Batch! The trailer reveals the return of a surprising character that I didn’t expect to see! Fan-favorite character Asajj Ventress is back. This is a big deal because she supposedly died in the 2015 novel Star Wars: Dark Disciple, which was created from a story that was meant for an unproduced Star Wars: The Clone Wars episode. This trailer is definitely going to get fans pumped up for what’s in store for Season 3!
Ventress is a former Sith assassin and apprentice to Count Dooku, and in the book, she becomes close with the Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos. When Ventress dies, Quinlan buries her in the waters of her home planet, Dathomir, home of the Nightsisters. So, perhaps the necromantic energies on that planet could resurrect Ventress. Or maybe, this is just Dave Filoni changing up the canon that was previously established to suit the needs of the story he wants to tell.
In Star Wars: The Bad Batch Season 3, "The Batch will have their limits tested in the fight to reunite with Omega as she faces challenges of her own inside a remote Imperial science lab. With the group fractured and facing threats from all directions, they will have to seek out unexpected allies, embark on dangerous missions, and muster everything they have learned to free themselves from the Empire."
Star Wars: The Bad Batch Season 3 stars Dee Bradley Baker as the voice of every Bad Batch member and Michelle Ang as Omega. The cast also includes Keisha Castle-Hughes, Jimmi Simpson, Noshir Dalal, and Wanda Sykes.
