It’s an anthology series that spotlights different characters within the empire as they, uh, heroically try to defeat the nefarious rebels and bring order to the galaxy. You can expect appearances by many of your dark side faves, including Grand Admiral Thrawn, General Grievous and the Grand Inquisitor. Just like how Tales of the Jedi put the spotlight on two characters, Ahsoka and Count Dooku, this new series will have its own duo to follow.

The show will also focus on Barriss Offee, a former Jedi Knight who fell to the dark side during the Clone Wars. Despite being animated, the characters will be played by their live action actors.
