Last year for May the 4th (Be With You), Star Wars unveiled a new edition of its “Tales“ animated anthology series, Tales of the Empire. This year’s Tales, coming to Disney+ on May 4, 2025, will be called Tales of the Underworld, and will focus on two different famous members of the Star Wars galaxy’s criminal elite: Bounty hunter Cad Bane from Star Wars: The Clone Wars and The Book of Boba Fett, and Nightsister Asajj Ventress from The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch, and quite a few Star Wars novels and video games.
Disney announced this latest batch of Tales along with a brief teaser for this year’s shorts. Watch it below:
