We'd known since April 2025 that 'Maul – Shadow Lord' was the next animated Star Wars show coming to Disney Plus, but a trailer hadn't been made public yet. That has just changed, and we now have a release date too.
The two-episode premiere of 'Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord' has been set for April 6, possibly leaving the May the 4th slot open for another surprise anthology series should Disney and Lucasfilm choose to keep the tradition going. In any case, we'll be getting 10 episodes of Force-powered action and intrigue spread across five weeks following the debut, according to the official news post, with executive producer Matt Michnovetz teasing it's "a super fast-paced series."
