'Star Wars’ animated anthology series ‘Visions’ renewed for Season 3

Los Angeles, Apr 20 (UNI) Animated show ‘Star Wars: Visions’ has been renewed for a third season, and will be streaming on Disney+ on April 29.
The show’s executive producer James Waugh confirmed that three of the most popular storylines from the first season of the show — “The Duel,” “The Village Bride” and “The Ninth Jedi” — will be continuing in the upcoming third volume of episodes.
The animated series is an anthology of various narratives spread across different timelines in the ‘Galaxy far far away’, with the first season featuring Japanese animation, while the second season had studios from different countries handling each episode. These include studios from Japan, the UK, Ireland, India, Spain, Chile, France, the US, and South Korea.
Revealing a “bold new direction” for ‘Visions’, Waugh, speaking at the ‘Star Wars Celebration’ in Tokyo, said he said would be giving filmmakers a chance to tell deeper and more longform stories without the constraints of the shorter runtime of the previous two seasons, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
With anime being a huge influence on the series, and much of it being greatly inspired from the lens of anime storytelling, the new season will gear more towards this format.
“In general, ‘Visions’ is a concept that really came from a passion for the animated medium,” said Waugh about the original inspirations behind the anthology and its focus on Japanese anime for its first and third volumes.
“I think we’ve always deeply admired the craftsmen that bring such great storytelling through animation. And so, as we were talking about how we could celebrate that, we ended up coming up with a concept really focused on anime and really focused on celebrating Star Wars from the anime perspective through the idea of really giving Japanese culture a spotlight within Star Wars and its influence on Star Wars in general.”
Upon its debut in 2021, ‘Vision’s became very popular among the fanbase as non-canon animated shorts created by different Japanese animation studios and featuring different animation styles. The lack of restrictions led to wildly imaginative interpretations of the Star Wars mythos that proved incredibly popular with fans and critics alike.
The second season, which was an international collaboration of different studios, presented even greater diversity in animation and storytelling, receiving great reception from the audience.
