Disney+ Announces ‘Star Wars: Visions’ Volume 3

Lucasfilm’s animated short film anthology has been renewed for a third installment in collaboration with nine Japanese anime studios, set to stream in 2025.

At the 2024 Disney APAC Content Showcase, Disney+ and Lucasfilm revealed that the Star Wars: Visions animated anthology series has been renewed for Volume 3.  The series will return to its anime roots with nine new shorts slated for release in 2025.
