Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures Releases Key Art, Preview Shorts
Set to premiere on May 4th, here's a new poster and video previews for Disney+ & Disney Junior's Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures.
So it was last month when we learned that Disney+ & Disney Junior's Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures would be hitting our screens on "Star Wars Day" (May 4, 2023), and now we have a chance for you to get to know the series in a much better way. Set during the High Republic era and the prime of the Jedi Order, the animated series follows Jedi younglings as they study the ways of the Force, explore the galaxy, help citizens and creatures in need, and learn valuable skills needed to become Jedi along the way. The cast includes Jamaal Avery, Jr. as Kai Brightstar, Juliet Donenfeld as Lys Solay, Dee Bradley Baker as Nubs, Emma Berman as Nash Durango, Jonathan Lipow as RJ-83, and Piotr Michael as Master Yoda. In addition to the key art that follows, we also have three show-related shorts that were released on YouTube earlier today to give you a better vibe on what you can expect.
With the original animated series set to hit Disney+ and Disney Junior on May 4th (of course), here's a look at three Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures shorts that were released earlier today to introduce us to the show's main players:
