Disney/Lucasfilm have revealed the first trailer for the second season of Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures, which debuts this August.
The Acolyte may have come to an end last night, but today brings a fresh look at another High Republic set series on Disney+. Our first look at the return of Young Jedi Adventures animated series has arrived, showing off new characters, adventures, and action.
While it’s geared toward the much younger audience, the first season of YJA was pretty darn fun and I’m glad to see it getting another season. It’s a great way to introduce your own kiddos to Star Wars, while scratching the itch as we wait for whatever comes next.
Set 200 years before “The Phantom Menace,” during the High Republic era, “Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures” follows Jedi younglings Kai Brightstar, Lys Solay, and Nubs 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.
“Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures” Season 2 follows the younglings as they continue their training and embark on even bigger missions across the galaxy. Helping to lead the younglings on these missions is Master Zia’s new Padawan, Wes Vinik, and his astromech RO-M1. As they continue their training and grow in the ways of the Force, the young Jedi will travel to new planets with new and old friends and encounter adversaries like The Ganguls, who are growing in their pirate ranks…
“We’re thrilled to invite fans of Kai, Lys, Nubs, and Nash back to the galaxy far, far away with Season 2 of ‘Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures,” says showrunner and executive producer Michael Olson. “This season, our heroes face thrilling challenges, welcome spirited Padawan Wes Vinik and a new class of younglings to Tenoo, and reunite with friends from across the galaxy. Together, they’ll learn important lessons about friendship, compassion, and overcoming fears. This heartfelt and action-packed season will be a thrilling ride, and we can’t wait to share it with you.”
Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures season two kicks off on Disney+ and Disney Jr. starting August 14, 2024.
