With the Bad Batch coming to a final ending next month – we’re not ready 🙁 – the next big Star Wars event to look forward to on the small screen is Tale of the Empire, the sequel limited animated series to Tales of the Jedi.
The series arrives on Star Wars Day – May 4th – and will feature six episodes following fallen Jedi Bariss Offee and Dathomir Witch Morgan Elsbeth; but one of the key events in Elsbeth’s history which the show will explore will be when General Grievous’ droids come to her planet and (mostly) wipe out her people, taking us back to the battle we saw in Clone Wars Season 4.
Now we have our first clip from the series courtesy of IGN which features Grievous taking on one of the warrior witches and showing off a movie that wll be very familiar to fans of Revenge of the Sith.
Check out the clip here:

Long live the Empire.
Star Wars: Tales of the Empire, a new six-part animated anthology in the style of Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi, was announced today with a surprise trailer and key art reveal.
Journey into the fearsome Galactic Empire through the eyes of two warriors on divergent paths — Nightsister Morgan Elsbeth and former Jedi Barriss Offee. Like the first season following Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku, Tales of the Empire focuses on previously untold events in the lives of the featured characters. The trailer teases that we’ll learn how a young Morgan Elsbeth navigates the expanding Imperial world towards a path of vengeance, while former Jedi Barriss Offee does what she must to survive a rapidly changing galaxy. The choices they make will define their destinies.
Star Wars: Tales of the Empire arrives May 4, 2024, on Disney+.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
