After The Acolyte, What's The Next Star Wars TV Show?

Summary Star Wars TV shows have dominated the franchise's success in recent years, with multiple releases set for after The Acolyte.

Young Jedi Adventures season 2 will be released in August 2024, marking another animated show for the year.

Skeleton Crew is also expected to be released during the 2024 Holiday period, continuing the franchise's exploration of the New Republic timeline.

The natural focus of Star Wars at the moment is placed firmly on The Acolyte, but there are multiple TV shows releasing after the High Republic story. Since 2019, Star Wars' primary success has come from the realm of TV. The various Star Wars Disney+ TV shows released have offered stories that have long been rumored, like Obi-Wan Kenobi and The Book of Boba Fett, as well as original stories tied to characters of the Skywalker Saga like Andor and Ahsoka.

The success of The Mandalorian has even influenced upcoming Star Wars movies, with the line between the small and big screens being blurred. Despite the franchise's return to theatrical releases, however, several upcoming Star Wars TV shows are expected to continue Lucasfilm's small-screen dominance in the near and distant future. Concerning the former, there are two Star Wars TV shows on the horizon once The Acolyte finishes its eight-episode run, both expected to be released in 2024.
