A new era of Star Wars stories is upon us. Previously known only as Project Luminous, The High Republic is a series of interconnected books and comics set 200 years befoไre the events of the Skywalker Saga, and features everything from exciting ne🧜w villains to Wookiee Jedi.

The first arc will be titled The High Republic: Light of th🎃e Jedi, and the opening salvo of books and comics are expected to arrive later this year to coincide with the Star Wars Celebration i🌸n August.

Star Wars: The High Republic: Light of the Jedi (trying saying that after one t♑oo many blue milks) will also be the title of the first novel, penned by Charles Soule, and features a Wookiee Jedi on its cover. There’s also a Marvel comic series, a High Republic Adventures comic book, plus a p🌱air of YA novels to look forward to.

That wave of new stories has been described in MCU-esque fashion as “Phase 1” of The High Republic. A reveal video also drew ba▨ck the shadowy curtain on the villains of the piece – the Nihil, who are described as “space Vikings” – and dan ominous-sounding Great Disaster “spins the galaxy off into a dangerous new direction.”

And what else can we expect? “We’ll get to see the Jedi in their prime,” said 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Lucasfilm pr๊esident Kathleen Kennedy of The High Republic’s previously untapped time period.

It’s important to note, however, that The High Republic is sticking to the page – at least for now. confirms that The Highꦰ Republic “will not overlap any of the filmed features or series currently planned for production, giving creators and partners a vast amount of room to tell Star Wars stories with new adventures and original characters.”

So, a whole new corner of the Star Wars universe to play in. For now, no more Skywalkers – just an entirely new galaxy-spanning series t𒉰o get excited about.
