Disney+ orders animated Star Wars: The Bad Batch, a spinoff of The Clone Wars

Deadline

Star Wars: The Clone Wars mastermind Dave Filoni is behind the next Star Wars animated series. Star Wars: The Bad Batch follows "the elite and experimental clones of the Bad Batch (first introduced in The Clone Wars) as they find their way in a rapidly changing galaxy in the immediate aftermath of the Clone War," per Deadline. "Members of Bad Batch – a unique squad of clones who vary genetically from their brothers in the Clone Army — each possess a singular exceptional skill which makes them extraordinarily effective soldiers and a formidable crew. In the post-Clone War era, they will take on daring mercenary missions as they struggle to stay afloat and find new purpose."
