Star Wars: The Bad Batch Will Come To Disney Plus On The Perfect Day

Lucasfilm and Disney have announced that the Clone Wars spin-off series Star Wars: The Bad Batch will premiere on Disney Plus on May 4th, 2021. The second episode will then premiere on May 7, with subsequent episodes available on Fridays on a weekly basis.

The series will follow the exploits of Clone Force 99, an elite squad of Republic commandos better known as The Bad Batch, as they make their way through the rapidly changing galaxy during the fall of the Galactic Republic and the rise of the Empire. Each member of Bad Batch has a unique genetic mutation which gives them heightened abilities that are ‘desirable’ for the battlefield. When they first appeared in the original Clone Wars series, Clone Force 99 is portrayed as rebellious and unconventional in their tactics, so it will be interesting to see how they adapt to a more authoritarian change in leadership.

The Bad Batch first appeared in the seventh and final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, which premiered on Disney Plus last year. During a four-episode arc, the elite squad was seen helping Captain Rex and Anakin Skywalker as they searched for their fallen comrade Echo, who was being used to predict republic battle strategies after being captured by the separatists. Dave Filoni will serve as an executive producer on The Bad Batch, having previously worked on several other Star Wars television shows, most notably in animation, including the original Clone Wars series, Star War Rebels, and Star Wars Resistance. More recently, Filoni has served as an executive producer, writer, and director on the hit live-action Disney Plus series The Mandalorian.

After the continued success of The Mandalorian, it seems Star Wars may have found a new home on the small screen. The Bad Batch was one of 11 Star Wars shows recently announced during Disney’s Investor Day last year. This included two Mandalorian spin-off shows, a series focused on fallen Jedi Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawnson),  and an Obi Wan Kenobi series in which Ewan McGregor will be reprising his role as the famous Jedi mentor.

The Bad Batch is set to premiere on May 4th, better known as “Star Wars Day.” Although it wasn’t officially created or declared by Lucasfilm, May 4th has become synonymous with Star Wars and is used by fans to celebrate the franchise. The date was chosen due to the pun on the catchphrase “May the Force be with you”, which is instead changed to “May the Fourth be with you.”

Disney and Lucasfilm have previously used the unofficial holiday to promote content. Last year, on May 4th, the final episode of The Clone Wars premiered on Disney Plus, as did The Rise of Skywalker, the final chapter of the sequel trilogy.
