TALES OF THE JEDI: A New Account Of The Galaxy’s Past

Hey guys. If you are a Star Wars fan, then get ready for some exciting times ahead as there is plenty to look forward to. Star Wars Tales of the Jedi is a six-part animated anthology shorts that will be streaming on Disney Plus from October 26, 2022 onwards. More than two years after the Clone Wars finale, we will get to revisit the Star Wars prequel era in the form of six 15-minute episodes. Officially revealed at the Star Wars Celebration in May, the series will dedicate three episodes each to two characters who left the Jedi Order. If your guess is right, yes we are talking about the two iconic characters Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku. Writer and producer Dave Filoni, who is known for his works in Star Wars Rebels, The Clone Wars, and The Mandalorian, is behind this one too. With his rich imagination and solid story-craft skills, fans can expect that Tales of the Jedi will have a lot to offer. Filoni said at the Star Wars Celebration 2022 panel, When I fly back and forth working on The Mandalorian, I'd write stories on the plane to pass the time. And I got this story. I wanted to explore some characters and base them in ideas I had while making The Clone Wars, that wouldn't be a full show. Spanning a myriad of people and stories, you can definitely tell that the format of this show is unique. The show will reflect the visual style of The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch, though with what looks to be higher-quality 3D rendering. So far, we know that it includes stories from before Star Wars, The Phantom Menace, and after Star Wars, Revenge of the Sith. There are signs from the trailer that each episode could be set in a different time period. And the fact that it may be from an era we've never seen before, gives us all the more reason to check it out. Of the two main characters featured here, we know that Ahsoka chose the way of light, while Dooku chose the path of darkness. The three episodes dedicated to Ahsoka will span many years of her life, starting with her birth and identification as a Jedi. The series will also mark the appearance of a new villain known as the Inquisitor, whom Ahsoka will probably vanquish. And the events that follow could prove to be memorable. The short episodes will give casual fans a lot to learn about her before the arrival of the Ahsoka series in 2023. Ashley Eckstein, who has voiced Ahsoka throughout her animated appearances, is delighted to see how this character's fanbase continues to grow. Previously she told ComicBook.com, I think I'm just excited for more Ahsoka, because Ahsoka is a character that is so universally loved and celebrated by everyone, and by all of Star Wars fandom. Everyone loves Ahsoka. She just represents all that is good. She represents all that is light and all that is hopeful. I'm just excited for more stories, because she means so much to people. The next three episodes that focus on Count Dooku seem a bit more complicated and less clear-cut. His life is a lot more mysterious than Ahsoka's. One thing that fans will be looking forward to seeing is how Dooku became disillusioned with the Jedi Order, got radicalized and seduced by the Dark Side, and ultimately becomes a Sith Lord. There are plenty of directions that they can go with this character and although what happens toward the end remains a mystery, fans can rest assured that it will give them a clear picture of all the emotions Dooku went through as he embraces the Dark Side of the Force. Apart from the characters mentioned above, the series will also feature Mace Windu, Master Yaddle, Bail Organa, and the ever-iconic Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. Tales of the Jedi provides the audience with an opportunity to see never-before-seen stories that would have otherwise been found in comics alone. Should the Tales of the Jedi prove to be a hit, and we believe there is no reason it shouldn't, it could open the doors for more stories of other characters from different eras.
