The Star Wars universe has grown a lot in the past few years. Fans were given the sequel trilogy that expanded on the Skywalker saga, introduced new characters, and even brought back old favorites. However, TV shows have been how the universe has grown the most. Many shows like The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Andor, The Bad Batch, and season 7 of The Clone Wars have brought back old favorites and introduced new ones. It has expanded the universe we were familiar with, but there is much more to look forward to in 2023.

Season 2 of The Bad Batch finally releases in January. The show will follow Clone Force 99 a few months after the fall of Kamino. They must figure out how to navigate the Empire after the fall of the Republic and deal with their brother, who turned on them. They will encounter familiar faces like Captain Rex, the return of Commander Cody, and Gungi, a Wookie youngling who appeared to survive Order 66. The Bad Batch premieres on January 4th, 2023, on Disney+.

We were first introduced to live-action Ahsoka during The Mandalorian season 2, where she introduced fans and Din to Grogu’s real name. She later appeared in an episode of The Book of Boba Fett alongside Luke Skywalker. She is getting her own live-action show and will be played by Rosario Dawson. We don’t know much about what the show will be about, but we know that Ahsoka will go after Grand Admiral Thrawn. Ahsoka will premiere sometime in 2023 on Disney+. 

The Mandalorian Season 3

Season 3 will follow Din and Grogu, who were reunited in the finale of The Book Of Boba Fett. From the trailers that have been released, Din is officially no longer a Mandalorian, according to the Armorer at least. He reunites with Greef Karga and appears alongside other Mandalorians. Bo Katan seems like an antagonist, and we see her appear on the throne of Mandalore. This season is definitely going to be much darker than previous seasons. The Mandalorian is set to premiere on March 1st, 2023, on Disney+. 

Skeleton Crew

This is the first full-length animated Star Wars series created specifically for young kids. The series will follow various younglings as they are swept off into adventures and start their journey as Jedi knights. The younglings will learn about compassion, self-discipline, teamwork, patience, and friendship. Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures will premiere in Spring 2023 on Disney+ and Disney Junior. 

2023 is going to be a big year for Star Wars shows. Four different ones will be coming out in one year, so Star Wars fans have a lot to look forward to. Two shows are brand new, and the other two are new seasons of characters we are familiar with already. So whatever kind of Star Wars fan you may be, hopefully, there will be something you’re excited about in 2023.
