With the end of "The Bad Batch's" three-season run right around the corner, the Star Wars galaxy is about to get much darker. Before "The Acolyte" arrives on June 4, we're getting an extra TV series in the shape of Tales of the Empire, another set of animated shorts.
In late 2022, Lucasfilm and Disney Plus released "Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi," a mini-series consisting of six animated shorts that further explored the past of Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku before he became a Sith lord. Now, Tales of the Empire promises a better look at Morgan Elsbeth's (a witch in cahoots with Grand Admiral Thrawn) past and the next chapter in Barriss Offee's troubled story after leaving the Jedi Order. You can watch the official trailer below:
