Star Wars A Droid Story is one of the many Star Wars-related titles that are set to come out over the next few years, but what do we actually know about the upcoming series?
The show was originally revealed by Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy back in 2020, as part of the Disney Investors Day Announcement alongside titles like Ashoka and Andor.
Synopsis
According to JustWatch, the synopsis for the upcoming Disney+ show is as follows: "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away the fan-favourite Star Wars droids R2-D2 and C-3P0 encounter a new friend and help them on an adventure in a universe where droids are often treated as second class citizens.
"Although R2-D2 and C-3P0 starred in an animated droid-centered show – Star Wars: Droids – in 1885, Star Wars: A Droid Story is an original story. The show adds to the ongoing expansion of the Star Wars universe on the small screen. After releasing the hit show The Mandalorian on Disney+, The Walt Disney Corporation green-lit several Star Wars TV shows. This includes Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka and Andor."
A Droid Story Release Date: Is there one?
As of writing, there is no official release date made for Star Wars A Droid Story, although by looking at the schedule of Disney+ content recently, there are potentially some indications that it could be in 2024/early 2025.
We will hopefully be able to get a more concrete date on when the series is set to be released, but Disney is known for their surprise releases on the Disney+ platform, so this could end up being another one of those.
Star Wars A Droid Story Cast: Has anyone been revealed?
As of writing, there are currently no voice actors confirmed for A Droid Story. Considering that C-3PO will be part of the cast, it is fair to assume that Anthony Daniels will be back to reprise his role as the human-cyborg-relations robot.
Daniels has lent his voice to the role in 10 Star Wars films to date, as well as other properties in the franchise like TV Shows, radio programmes and video games.
Star Wars A Droid Story Cancelled?
Rogue Squadron was one of the projects that would end up being cancelled from a recent batch of Star Wars announcements. And, although there are speculations from fans that A Droid Story is cancelled, it has not been confirmed by Disney.
