The next generation of Jedi has arrived: Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures, which tells the story of younglings Kai Brightstar, Lys Solay, and the lovable Nubs, is now streaming on Disney+ and airing on Disney Junior.
Taking place during the High Republic era, over two hundred years before Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, this new trio goes on a host of fun escapades, joined by their friend, talented pilot Nash Durango and her droid RJ-83. Of course, some familiar faces (Yoda) and some new friends (the wise Master Zia) are here to help them become Jedi Knights, as they square off against the mischievous Taborr and his pirate gang.
The perfect show for young fans, as well as their parents and guardians, the team behind the Young Jedi Adventures knew this preschool-age show was uncharted territory for the saga. “The question was, how do we maintain what Star Wars feels like?” executive producer James Waugh tells StarWars.com. “How do the values, the adventure, and the life lessons feel inherent and right?”

New Star Wars x Fortnite Activation to Celebrate the Prequel Trilogy
Via Starwars.com:
Star Wars has returned to Fortnite.
StarWars.com is excited to announce Fortnite’s “Find the Force,” which will celebrate the Star Wars prequels with new gameplay elements, unlockables, and items in the Item Shop.
During Find the Force, several rifts will open throughout the Island, with holograms of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Darth Maul waiting to train players in the Force. Players can enter the rifts and based on the trainer they interact with, they’ll emerge with their very own lightsaber — blue, green, or red — along with the ability to use one of several Force abilities, including Push, Pull, and Throw.
Further celebrating the prequels, the Island will progress through the events inspired by Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, and Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, with quests, characters and interactions changing. Some of the many extras also coming include Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala Outfits in the Item Shop, Republic Chests housing DC-15 blasters, Clone Trooper NPCs, and more.
Developed by Epic Games, Fortnite is a place where players can create their own worlds or squad in the classic Battle Royale and action-packed Zero Build. Fortnite is available on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Android, PC, and cloud-based game streaming services.
Find the Force will run from May 2-23 at 9 a.m. EST. Whether you’re a seasoned Fortnite player or new to the game, and even if you hate sand, you should visit the Island for the latest Star Wars and Fortnite collaboration.
