Star Wars Visions Presents: The Ninth Jedi is set to explore more of Kara's continued search for her father while exploring the state of the Jedi Order in the farthest point of the Star Wars timeline. According to a listing from Anime Expo on X, Star Wars: Visions Presents – The Ninth Jedi is confirmed to be released on Disney+ later in Summer 2026, ramping up anticipation for the upcoming spinoff series.
