Star Wars: Visions Presents is an American animated anthology spin-off series based on the shorts from Star Wars: Visions created for the American streaming service Disney+ and Hulu. Produced by Lucasfilm, the spin-off focuses on expanding the shorts from Visions, with each being a self-contained narrative produced by various studio, into series or films as creators at each studio are given free rein to re-envision the ideas of Star Wars, within the universe set in or inspired from, as they see fit, while receiving guidance from Lucasfilm's executive team.

It's first series, The Ninth Jedi, based on the shorts from Volumes 1 and 3 by Production I.G, will be released on August 5, 2026.[1]

Premise

[edit]

Like Star Wars: Visions, the spin-off series follows a collection of adapted works from the animated short films presented "through the lens of the world's best anime creators" in the first volume that offers a new animated perspective on Star Wars.[2] Created outside of the constraints of the franchise's traditional stylings, the films provide creative freedom to each director and production studio, while maintaining fidelity to the themes and emotional identity of the Star Wars saga.[3] Additional volumes, such as Volume 2 (2023), feature animation styles from various companies around the world.[4]
