Lucasfilm and Disney have released the first full trailer for the new animated series in the Star Wars universe. It has been subtitled Shadow Lord and will continue the story of the famous red-skinned Sith Darth Maul, who made an impactful return in another animated series — “The Clone Wars.”

What is Known

Maul is no longer a Sith and is in conflict with the Emperor and his agents.

The events of Star Wars: Maul — Shadow Lord will unfold a year after the finale of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. In addition, the ambitious protagonist will once again try to restore the influence of his criminal organization “Crimson Dawn,” and in his spare time will teach a young follower who escaped from the Jedi Order and no longer wants to follow their code.

As in The Clone Wars, viewers can expect excellent graphic execution and spectacular direction, with Maul once again voiced by actor Sam Witwer.

When to Expect

Star Wars: Maul — Shadow Lord will premiere on April 6 on the Disney+ streaming service.
