It was back during Star Wars Celebration Japan 2025 when Lucasfilm and Disney+'s Star Wars: Visions EP James Waugh offered a look at what Volume 3 had to offer: nine short films from Kamikaze Douga, Kinema Citrus Co., Production I.G., Studio Trigger, Anima, David Production, Polygon Pictures, Project Studio Q, and WIT Studio. But that was far from all that was announced, with Waugh sharing that Star Wars: Visions Presents – The Ninth Jedi would be available on Disney+ in 2026. Writer and director Kenji Kamiyama took to the stage to thank the audience for their support and enthusiasm for the adventures of Kara and Juro in "The Ninth Jedi" that were continuing in both "Visions" and the upcoming spinoff series. That brought us to June 2026, with the news dropping that Anime Expo 2026 (running from July 2nd through the 5th at the Los Angeles Convention Center) would spotlight the animated series on July 2nd. Now, thanks to an announcement teaser released on Wednesday, we also know that an official trailer will be released on Thursday.
