What is Star Wars: The Bad Batch about?
The animated Star Wars: The Bad Batch takes place just after the fall of the Republic in Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Clone Force 99 was introduced in Star Wars: The Clone Wars as a group of elite clone troopers with genetic mutations. These clones have built a reputation for themselves as rough-and-ready mercenaries, who take on one daring mission after another as they navigate the changing winds of history. Funnily enough, all five members of Clone Force 99 are voiced by legendary and versatile voice artist Dee Bradley Baker.
Season one premiered on Star Wars Day 2021 and comprised 16 action-packed episodes. Disney+ is kicking 2023 off right with the season two premiere of Star Wars: The Bad Batch on Wednesday, January 4. The season will kick off with two new episodes, with new episodes every Wednesday until March 29. Select Wednesdays will present two episodes instead of one, including the season two finale week.
