Today is the final day of the 2022 Star Wars Celebration, and while Sunday is typically a slow day at any con, the teams have not slowed their pace. Star Wars: The Bad Batch panel gave fans a first look at Season 2! 

The first season of The Bad Batch aired on Disney Plus last year and was created by Star Wars royalty Dave Filoni. It is a spinoff from another fan-favorite Filoni show (try saying that three times fast), Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The show takes place after Order 66’s execution as the Galactic Empire rises from the Republic’s ashes and marks the definitive end of the prequel era. 

Dee Bradley Baker reprises his role from Star Wars: The Clone Wars, voicing all the clones, including the “Bad Batch.” They consist of a squad of elite clone troopers with genetic mutations, making them unique from other clone troopers or “Regs.” Michelle Ang stars as Omega, a female clone who joins Clone Force 99.

The panel revealed a time jump between Seasons 1 and 2, with young Omega getting older and the team giving their armors new looks. We get a good view of Hunter’s new armor and a shot of Omega, who is finally in armor. Just because time has passed doesn’t mean all is well for this found family. 

Season 1 gave us a ton of character crossovers, including Fennec Shand, voiced by her live-action actor, Ming-Na Wen. The first season featured the return of Captain Rex and bounty hunter Cad Bane. I’m interested to see what other characters will cross the Bad Batch’s path. 

Do you have any predictions for Season 2? Will we better understand what role the clone trooper project played in Palpatine’s resurrection? Tell us your theories in the comments. 

The second season of The Bad Batch will stream on Disney Plus sometime this fall. Watch the trailer below, and check out this comic book-inspired poster given to fans at Celebration!
