The series will debut on the streaming service on June 4.
The series stars Amandla Stenberg, Lee Jung-jae, Manny Jacinto, Dafne Keen, Charlie Barnett, Jodie Turner-Smith, Rebecca Henderson, Dean-Charles Chapman, Joonas Suotamo, and Carrie-Anne Moss.
The official logline states, “An investigation into a shocking crime spree pits a respected Jedi Master (Lee) against a dangerous warrior from his past (Stenberg). As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems.” The show is known to be set during the High Republic era of the “Star Wars” timeline, prior to the events of the “Star Wars” films.
Is this a palpatine origin story?
It’s set about 100 years before The Phantom Menace, so likely no. Palpatine was born 52 years before The Phantom Menace. But we may see Darth Plagueis.
I want to make a joke about those being the same person now, but I don’t have the willpower to do it without giving in to the Dark Side of fandom.
Chewbacca?
Also Andor and Obi Wan are getting 4K disc releases soon.
