Disney+ first announced that it had renewed Star Wars: The Bad Batch for a second season, having spun out of the final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, back in August 2021. "Fans have enthusiastically embraced the action and drama of Star Wars: The Bad Batch, and we are excited to see the Star Wars animated universe continue to expand on Disney+," said Michael Paull, president of Disney+ and ESPN+ in a statement. "As the dedicated streaming home for the Star Wars franchise, we can't wait for the second season of this fan-favorite animated series." Executive producer Dave Filoni "The entire Lucasfilm Animation team and I would like to thank Disney+ and our fans for the opportunity to continue telling the story of the Bad Batch."
Star Wars: The Bad Batch features the voice of Dee Bradley Baker as the Bad Batch and Michelle Ang as Omega. It's also seen its share of returning fan-favorite characters. Ming-Na Wen voiced Fennec Shand, whom she plays in live-action on The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. The first season also featured the return of Captain Rex and bounty hunter Cad Bane. Set just after the execution of Order 66 at the end of the Clone Wars, as the Galactic Empire rises from the Republic's ashes, The Bad Batch depicts the definitive end of the Prequel Trilogy era.
