Star Wars Visions Volume 2 Coming May 4

Star Wars Visions is coming back on Star Wars day. The new season of the animated anthology series will come to Disney+ on May 4, featuring nine new takes on Star Wars from various award-winning animation studios from around the world. Whereas the first volume featured an array of Japanese studios, this one will include studios from the UK, Spain, South Africa, and more.

Volume 2 will consist of nine new shorts created by the following studios: El Guiri (Spain), Cartoon Saloon (Ireland), Punkrobot (Chile), Aardman (United Kingdom), Studio Mir (South Korea) Studio La Cachette (France), 88 Pictures (India), D'art Shtajio (Japan), and Triggerfish (South Africa). The announcement notes that the D'art Shtajio short was created in collaboration with the US-based Lucasfilm.

The announcement doesn't give plot details, but it does give titles for each of the shorts. Screecher's Reach is the short from Cartoon Saloon, the Ireland-based producer of Wolfwalkers and The Secret of Kells. Aardman animation, the studio behind Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit, made a short called I Am Your Mother. Studio La Cachette's short, The Spy Dancer, is directed by Julien Chheng, who won an Emmy in 2021 as animation executive producer and supervisor for Genndy Tartakovsky’s Primal. You can check out a full list of studios and shorts below.

Visions will be the third Star Wars series released on Disney+ this year, following the new season of The Bad Batch and the upcoming season of The Mandalorian. Other shows slated for this year include Star Wars: Ahsoka and Skeleton Crew.
