The series will focus on the now-exiled Darth Maul, who takes on a ronin-esque role and enlists the help of a Twi’lek Jedi to enact revenge on the Empire, which is now hunting him.

The animated Star Wars show was announced back in April 2025 during the 20th anniversary Lucasfilm Animation Panel at Star Wars Celebration 2025 in Japan. Sam Witwer reprises his role as the voice of Maul. Maul – Shadow Lord will premiere on Disney+ on April 6.
