The first young audience animated series, Young Jedi Adventures, set during the High Republic era, premiered in May 2023. Two animated anthology series have been produced: Visions in 2021 and Tales of the Jedi in 2022. An additional spin-off series from The Clone Wars, titled The Bad Batch, debuted on Disney+ in 2021. Two additional half-hour animated series were created: Rebels, which ties into the original trilogy, and Resistance, which ties into the sequel trilogy. After Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm, only The Clone Wars was kept in the canon of continuity of the episodic Star Wars films. Further animated series began to be released in the 2000s, the first two of which focused on the prequel trilogy-era Clone Wars. Two animated series were released in the mid-1980s. The Star Wars franchise has spawned multiple films and television series.
