With the calendar inching ever-so-closer to Star Wars Day (May the 4th, in case you forgot), Disney+ & Disney Junior continue rolling out animated shorts introducing us to the world of Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures. 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. We won't bring up what happens… down the road. 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 – but it's Berman's Nash who gets the spotlight this time. In our updated rundown of what the series has to offer, you'll find a fifth short where our Young Jedi find themselves aboard Nash's starship, The Crimson Firehawk – and needing to leave the scene fast.
