Over the past 5+ years, Star Wars has had an interesting run on Disney+. Series like The Mandalorian and Andor have been hailed as some of the best stories to ever be told by the franchise, while others like Book of Boba Fett and The Acolyte have met with a much more… mixed response. Classic characters like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ashoka Tano have been thrust back into the spotlight, while new characters (like Grogu obvi) have taken their place in the franchise’s pantheon. Now, the latest Star Wars series on the platform has gotten a new premiere date!

During Disney’s most recent earnings call, CEO Bob Iger spoke highly about the value of live sports, especially to advertisers.
