Tales of the Jedi will follow Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku through their formation and life as Jedi. Fans will be able to see familiar faces like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Mace Windu, Master Yoda, and a young Qui Gon Jinn return for this story, as well as Yaddle, a Jedi master from the same species as Master Yoda, who faces Dooku during one scene of the trailer.
The series will be divided into three episodes for each character. Per Variety, “Ahsoka’s three episodes focus on different points of the Jedi hero’s life, while Dooku’s episodes depict the character’s youth before he turned to the dark side. Each episode will be 15 minutes long.”
