Here are all the Star Wars movies and shows on Disney Plus:
'The Rise of Skywalker' — available May 4
Disney
"Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" is the final chapter of the The Skywalker Saga, which started with "A New Hope" in 1977 and spans a total of nine movies. Daisy Ridley stars as Rey, the last Jedi to train under Luke Skywalker, while Academy Award nominee Adam Driver reprises his role as Kylo Ren, a Sith lord seeking to conquer the galaxy.
"The Rise of Skywalker" was released in theaters in December 2019 and went on to earn more than $1 billion in worldwide box office sales. The J.J. Abrams-produced film received Academy Award nominations for Best Original Score, Best Visual Effects, and Best Sound Editing.
'The Mandalorian' — available now
Disney
"The Mandalorian" is like an old Western take on the Star Wars legacy.
The big-budget show takes place five years after the fall of the Empire in the "Return of the Jedi" and focuses on a bounty hunter who journeys far out into the galaxy and beyond the rules of the New Republic.
Director and actor Jon Favreau ("Lion King" and "Iron Man") is the creator, head writer, showrunner, and co-executive producer of the series, which stars Pedro Pascal as the Mandalorian alongside Gina Carano, Nick Nolte, Giancarlo Esposito, Emily Swallow, and Carl Weathers.
All eight episodes of the show's first season are now available to stream. A second season of "The Mandalorian" has already been ordered and is tentatively scheduled to premiere in October 2020.
'Star Wars: The Clone Wars' - available now
Disney
The seventh season of "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" is now streaming on Disney Plus.
The animated show originally came to an end after its sixth season back in 2014, but Disney has revived the series for one final season on Disney Plus. Season seven consists of 12 episodes, and new installments debuts every Friday. The series finale, will premiere on Monday, May 4, 2020 as part of Disney's "Star Wars Day" celebration.
For those who need to catch up on the show, seasons one through six of "The Clone Wars" are also available to stream right now.
'Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian' - available May 4
Reuters
This eight-part documentary series offers a behind-the-scenes look at the production of "The Mandalorian." The show includes interviews, never-before-seen footage, and roundtable conversations with the cast and crew. Executive Producer Jon Favreau serves as the documentary's host.
The first episode of "Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian" will premiere on May 4, 2020. New episodes will then debut every Friday.
Cassian Andor Project - to be announced
Disney
This yet-to-be-named spy thriller project stars Diego Luna reprising his role as Cassian Andor from 2016's "Rogue One." Alan Tudyk also stars as the voice behind the droid K-2SO.
Spoiler alert: both of these characters died at the end of "Rogue One" so this will obviously be a prequel. As of publication time, there is no date for when this will be released.
Obi-Wan Kenobi Project - to be announced
Lucasfilm
One of the most anticipated Star Wars projects boasts the return of Ewan McGregor in the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi.
The as-yet-untitled Kenobi series is set eight years after the events of "Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith." Filming is slated to begin next year, so episodes won't be ready for streaming until 2021 at the earliest.
