Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld

Two outlaws drift through the galaxy's roiling underworld, chasing a future that feels just out of reach. This animated series follows their uneasy alliance as they slip between backroom deals, neon-lit cantinas, and dangerous corners where cargo and lies are currency. Each choice rattles a fragile balance of power across a sprawling network of smugglers, bounty hunters, and crime lords. As they dodge trackers and rivals, they discover that freedom may demand a sacrifice they aren't prepared to make. The story blends sharp wit with high stakes, anchoring cosmic danger in human grit. Rumors, quick turns, and a shifting loyalties thread through their days as new risks surface. Their alliance tests loyalties when a legacy they carry resurfaces.
