There will be spoilers for the "Star Wars: Tales of the Empire" episode "The Path of Hate," so beware.
"Star Wars: Tales of the Empire" brings us to many locations across its six episodes, new and old, familiar and alien. One planet in particular, first introduced in "The Mandalorian" during its second season, gets the spotlight in the third episode of this series, "Path of Hate." Corvus was the setting for the 13th chapter of "The Mandalorian", showing us a blackened forest and a city named Calodan under the direct control of a magistrate named Morgan Elsbeth. Since this episode was our first introduction to Elsbeth, we didn't know who she was or how she took control of the planet, only that she was still aligned with the Imperials and had some connection to Grand Admiral Thrawn.
"The Path of Hate" gives us all of that vital backstory and shows...

We first met Morgan Elsbeth in The Mandalorian when Din Djarin and Ahsoka Tano encountered the villainous Magistrate on Corvus. The latter's series later established Morgan's role there as part of her attempts to bring Grand Admiral Thrawn back from a neighbouring Galaxy, but who is she really?
Star Wars: Tales of the Empire sets out to answer that question and begins by taking us to Morgan's childhood on Dathomir. Episode 1 returns to the Clone Wars and begins with the planet coming under attack from General Grievous and his droid army.
Morgan's mother is killed and the Nightsisters are wiped out; luckily, the Mountain Clan rescues the teen and offers her a place among them.
She befriends some of the village's girls, convincing them to help her gather weapons she can...

“Size matters not,” Yoda once told us. And so, while Tales Of The Empire — the second anthology of canonical Star Wars animated shorts, following the 2022 collection Tales Of The Jedi — consists of just six bite-sized instalments, running between 10 and 15 minutes each, it’s not to be overlooked. This is short, powerful, punchy storytelling in the Star Wars galaxy, hooking onto under-explored characters and offering narrative morsels that thread together decades of disparate threads.
Last time, the focus was on the fall of Count Dooku and pivotal moments in the life of Ahsoka Tano. Here, the first three episodes are devoted to Morgan Elsbeth (Diana Lee Inosanto) — the Beskar-spear-swinging Magistrate first introduced in The Mandalorian Season 2, later revealed as a former Dathomir witch intent on heralding the return of Grand Admiral Thrawn in Ahsoka – as she loses everything, and finds new purpose in the embrace of the Empire.

The opening moments of writer/director Barnaby Clay’s feature debut, The Seeding, call to mind extreme desert-set horror films like The Hills Have Eyes. A small child toddles through harsh, sandy terrain as he contently gnaws on a severed finger. The camera then watches overhead as a man parks his car and heads out to photograph a solar eclipse overhead, far from the bustling city and oblivious to any danger. It’s here where The Seeding quickly leaves familiar territory behind in favor of psychological arthouse fare.
The man, Wyndham Stone (Scott Haze), nearly makes it back to his car safe and sound until he comes upon a crying boy claiming to be lost. Wyndham knows something is amiss, but his guilt at the possibility of abandoning a child in peril overrides all warning signals. Before he knows it, he’s drawn into the wild and becomes lost himself.

It feels like we’ve been waiting ages for Ahsoka, a Disney+ live action series that was first announced in 2020. Finally, we have our first proper look at the show being helmed by Dave Filoni, who is bringing many of the animated characters we know and love to live action for the very first time. That includes Sabine Wren, Hera Syndulla, and Ezra Bridger, as well as the return of Rosario Dawson as the fan-favorite Jedi warrior, but that’s not all that’s happening on Ahsoka.
As you’ll see in the trailer below, which was released at today’s Lucasfilm Studio Showcase during Star Wars Celebration Europe, Ahsoka is also bringing back quite a bit of Legends stuff to canon. Someone even references Heir to the Empire…
Grand Admiral Thrawn, new villains, and a few other surprise returning characters! This first trailer has it all. Here are all...
