Today, Disney+ released the trailer and key art for Lucasfilm’s upcoming original animated series Star Wars: Tales of the Empire.
The new series, which is the second installment of the Tales series, stylistically follows 2022’s critically acclaimed Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi.
Tales of the Empire launches exclusively on Disney+ on Star Wars Day, May 4, with all six episodes.
Star Wars: Tales of the Empire is a six-episode journey into the fearsome Galactic Empire through the eyes of two warriors on divergent paths, set during different eras.
After losing everything, young Morgan Elsbeth navigates the expanding Imperial world toward a path of vengeance, while former Jedi Barriss Offee does what she must to survive a rapidly changing galaxy. The choices they make will define their destinies.
The voice cast includes Diana Lee Inosanto (Morgan Elsbeth), Meredith Salenger (Barriss Offee), Rya Kihlstedt (Lyn aka Fourth Sister), Wing T. Chao (Wing), Lars Mikkelsen (Thrawn), Jason Isaacs (Grand Inquisitor), and Matthew Wood (General Grievous).
Dave Filoni created the series and is the supervising director. He is also an executive producer for Lucasfilm along with Athena Yvette Portillo and Carrie Beck.
Josh Rimes serves as co-executive producer, and Alex Spotswood is the senior producer.
