The Bad Batch Poster Has Fans Totally Hyped

Taking up most of the poster's real estate is the group of clones the series is named after: Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, Crosshair, and Echo (all voiced by Dee Bradley Baker). A hologram of the menacing Emperor Palpatine towers over them, while a small child stands timidly alongside the clones. This new character's name is Omega, and although not much else is known about them, they appear to come from some high-class setting based on their clothing and clues from the earlier trailer. There are also plenty of explosions, planets and spaceships in the background to get us even more hyped for the next chapter in the animated Star Wars canon.

The Bad Batch's premiere special 70-minute episode will kick off the series on Star Wars Day, May 4th, exactly one year after The Clone Wars concluded with its finale. Subsequent episodes will stream weekly on Disney+. At least 14 episodes were confirmed by series composer Kevin Kiner on the Full of Sith podcast for the debut season, and if the nearly two-decade run of The Clone Wars is any indication, The Bad Batch could stick around for a while.
