Final Trailer for the Eight-Episode Limited Animated Series
《Star Wars: Visions Presents – The Ninth Jedi》 is an eight-episode limited series that follows the short films “The Ninth Jedi” and “The Ninth Jedi: Child of Hope” from 《Star Wars: Visions》. It is the first work under the new “Star Wars: Visions Presents” label for feature-length stories, produced by Lucasfilm and Production I.G.
After continuing her Jedi training under Margrave Juro, Lah Kara sets out with a small group of Jedi trainees to rescue her father, who has been captured by a new warlord. Long after the fall of the Sith, in a galaxy where the Jedi Order has also vanished, Kara and her companions must find fellow Jedi to stand against the growing power of General Nawaam.
Shunsuke Tada directed, Mitsuyasu Sakai wrote the screenplay, and Kenji Kamiyama participated as chief director. In the English version, Kimiko Glenn returns as Lah Kara, Andrew Kishino as Juro, and Simu Liu as Lah Zhima, while Young Mazino voices Nawaam and Feodor Chin voices Gennoh.
All eight episodes will be released on Disney+ and Hulu on August 5, 2026. The previous post's 24-minute runtime made it appear to be the length of a single episode, but it could not be verified in the official series information, so it was removed. Lucasfilm was also correctly classified as a production company rather than a distributor.
