Although the original trilogy featured few of these fabled warriors, it teased of a time when the Jedi were plentiful. While the prequel trilogy showed audiences the Jedi Order and its downfall, the Star Wars: The High Republic initiative, set centuries prior to the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace,

With Inside Star Wars: Visions, StarWars.com will pull back the curtain on the series for exclusive early insights into what might await us.
