A kid-focused series set in the StarWarsTheHighRepublic era is reportedly in development at DisneyPlus
✖ A kid-focused live-action Star Wars series is reportedly in development at Disney+, featuring the franchise's High Republic era. Lucasfilm has pushed Star Wars: The High Republic in the publishing realm, releasing various comic books and novels that take place two centuries before the events of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Star Wars recently announced Wave 3 of The High Republic, with more content arriving in the near future.
Cinelinx reports that multiple sources have referred to this High Republic show as"Stranger Things in space." Of course, Stranger Things is the popular Netflix series starring a cast of teenagers dealing with supernatural events in their small town. In the same manner as Stranger Things, a Disney+ High Republic show would feature actors ranging from pre-teens to teenagers.
One of the Star Wars series officially announced for Disney+ is The Acolyte, which is said to take place near the end of The High Republic. Writer Cavan Scott talked with the ComicBook Nation podcast about The High Republic, and whether the announcement of The Acolyte altered their writing plans. "No, because I think we predated that 'cause we've been working on this for a good number of years now," Scott explained."So what happened was people were getting excited about the High Republic as we were creating it, which was great to see, and there have been all these other plans as well but the great thing that Star Wars is so good at is taking the 'Things been worked on over here. This thing's been worked over on here, so let's bring it together.
