STAR WARS Coming to DisneyPlus 2021

WARNING: *SPOILERS AHEAD FOR ALL CURRENT AND PAST STAR WARS MEDIA*

A glorious Friday morning here in Singapore (Thursday evening in U.S.A.), with Disney unveiling a SLEW of STAR WARS-related media news, coming to DisneyPlus - as part of their "Disney Investor Day" event - with THIS blog-feature abut all-things-STAR WARS, thank you very much! Scroll thru to find out WHAT'S IN STORE FOR 2021! AND BEYOND!

(Info & images courtesy of @starwars Twitter).



Announced is "Rangers of the New Republic", a new Original Series set within the timeline of "The Mandalorian", with a logo revealed, coming to DisneyPlus. Would this have anything to do with Cara Dune and the shield she received from "Captain Carson Teva" in Chapter 12/Episode 4 ("The Siege") in Season 2?



A new Original Series simply titled "Ahsoka" sees Rosario Dawson continuing her role (revealed in Chapter 13/Episode 5 of The Mandalorian Season 2), and will be set within the timeline of "The Mandalorian"! Maybe "Grand Admiral Thrawn" will not appear in Mando, but a spin-off into her own series...?



"Everything I did, I did for the Rebellion." says "Cassian Andor" (played by Diego Luna), who spins off from the "Rogue One" feature film into a brand new Original Series set in the Star Wars universe, with "ANDOR" streaming in 2022 on DisneyPlus. According to the Wiki-page: "...his character will appear younger in the series, which is set five years before Rogue One. Alan Tudyk and Genevieve O’Reilly will reprise their roles as K-2SO and Mon Mothma, respectively, and the series is also set to feature Stellan SkarsgÃ¥rd, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, and Adria Arjona."



He would be "Anakin Skywalker" Hayden Christensen returns as "Darth Vader", joining Ewan McGregor in "OBI-WAN KENOBI". The Original Series begins 10 years after the dramatic events of Revenge of the Sith, which means the limb-less Anarkin (Thanks to Obi-Wan) has since been remade as VADAR.



A sneak peek at "Star Wars: The Bad Batch", an all-new animated Original Series from Lucasfilm Animation, coming DisneyPlus... I love how the "The Clone Wars" logo melts to be replaced by this LOL



Now THIS interests me greatly: "Star Wars: Visions" is an Original Series of animated short films, celebrating the Star Wars galaxy through the lens of the world’s best Japanese anime creators. Coming in 2021 to DisneyPlus.






There are a few non-Star Wars-Related news on their Twitter-feed as well, but for now, I'll end off this blog-feature with the "trailer" for THE MANDALORIAN Season 2 that they could not show, least SPOILERS spoil everything LOL ... call it a "catch-up", call it a "sizzle reel" (they did), I call it "SEE WHAT YOU MISSED BEFORE THE FINAL TWO EPISODES" happen!



And while I recognise nothing could ever replace "May The Force Be With You", I certainly think "This Is The Way" has it's charms! LOL

Cheers,
Andy
