Star Wars: Visions, the series of animated short films that celebrate that galaxy far, far away through the lens of anime creators, will officially return in Spring 2023 with Volume 2.
The Volume 2 announcement was made during Star Wars Celebration and will be great news for those looking for a fresh and new take on the Star Wars universe. The first volume contained nine episodes, including a look at what became of the Jedi, a Rock Opera, and more.
The English dub cast also featured many familiar voices, including Temuera Morrison, Neil Patrick Harris, Simu Liu, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Alison Brie, Henry Golding, George Takei, David Harbour, Lucy Liu, and more.
In our Star Wars: Visions review, we said that it "takes the building blocks of the franchise and rearranges them to create a series of compelling new stories bolstered by a breadth of visual styles and masterful animation."
While it was exciting to see these new stories, Star Wars: Visions producer Kanako Shirasaki and executive producer James Waugh have confirmed that the series is not canon - at least not yet.
Star Wars Celebration was filled with many other announcements, including a trailer and release date for Star Wars' Andor, the official reveal of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, a tease that Star Wars Rebels' Ezra, Sabine, Hera, and Chopper would be joining the live-action Ahsoka series, the Star Wars: Skeleton Crew series starring Jude Law, and much more.
