Lucasfilm has continuously shown their growing interest in more TV properties for Star Wars ever since the long-awaited conclusion to the Skywalker Saga, The Rise of Skywalker back in 2019.
Now Star Wars fans have an update on a couple of those projects, The Bad Batch and a rumored sequel to Rebels.
A Star Wars influencer Corey Van Dyke claims to have some insider knowledge on both shows which he shared on his Twitter account.
I know everyone keeps asking where the Rebels sequel is. This is still all we know:

•It’s Animated
•Ahsoka/Sabine star in it.
•Season 1 should be done.
I unfortunately have no new updates on it nor does our animation source. If we hear anything we’ll let you all know. pic.twitter.com/3BVnqrwUBI
It is Disney+, I’d expect Summer at this point

Small update on The Bad Batch. They are targeting a March/April release so hopefully we get the official date by the end of the year! pic.twitter.com/ioszyZVYAD

What gets me really pumped for The Bad Batch is we’ve heard from our animation source that it’s the same quality as The Clone Wars. That’s exactly what I was hoping for. I think this series has the potential to be incredible! #TheBadBatch pic.twitter.com/CLHWoQoaJb

Dissecting these Star Wars Rumors

These new rumors are definitely very interesting to say the least as the Rebels sequel still has yet to even be confirmed and yet Van Dyke claims that Season 1 is already complete.
He also mentions that The Bad Batch will be coming to Disney+ sometime around March/April. This would make sense as that is pretty much around the same time The Clone Wars Season 7 aired this year.

As for the validity of this information, we will just have to wait and see. I will say that if all of this is true I am super excited for the future of the franchise and cannot wait to see these two shows!
