‘Star Wars: Visions’ Reasserts Non-Canon Freedom as Volume 3 Streams on Disney+
Executive producer James Waugh says the anthology privileges standalone, culturally driven stories over fitting into official continuity.
Overview
- Volume 3 is now available on Disney+, featuring new shorts including the sequel “The Duel: Payback.”
- Waugh states the series is not trying to be part of Star Wars’ ongoing canonical narrative.
- Each episode is created by a different studio, showcasing distinct animation styles and interpretations of the universe.
- Waugh says the team may draw from the expanded universe when those elements carry cultural meaning for the creators.
- He adds that contradictions with established lore are acceptable within Visions when a story’s unique expression calls for it.
