Overview
- Multiple outlets report an unverified claim from leaker @FivesWalker that a new Tales of the Jedi season will center on Luke Skywalker, with no confirmation from Lucasfilm.
- Any reveal could land on May 4, a date Star Wars often uses for animation announcements, though no date has been set.
- The Tales series is an animated Disney+ anthology of short, character-driven stories, with past entries focused on Ahsoka, Empire figures, and the criminal underworld.
- The rumor surfaces as leadership shifts place Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan in charge after Kathleen Kennedy’s departure, shaping a strategy that pairs a theater return with steady animation.
- Mark Hamill has said he may not return to voice Luke, leaving casting and approach unclear if the project exists.
