Asajj Ventress And Cad Bane Star In Tales Of The Underworld

Initially, Tales of the Jedi dived into the narratives of Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku. This was followed by Tales of the Empire, which showcased the journeys of Morgan Elsbeth and Barriss Offee. Now, step into the universe of Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld, where the focus shifts to Asajj Ventress and Cad Bane.

Disney+ and Lucasfilm have unveiled the trailer for Tales of the Underworld, the latest chapter in the Tales anthology series. This season features two legendary bounty hunters: Asajj Ventress and Cad Bane.

Ventress has navigated both sides of the Force, previously serving as a Jedi Padawan and later as an assassin for Count Dooku. Her ambition to become a Sith led her to battle numerous Jedi during the Clone Wars, including notable figures like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. After Dooku attempted to eliminate her, Ventress escaped and rejoined the Nightsister clan to concoct a plan for vengeance. In this series, she operates as a bounty hunter, living on the run with no ties to either the Sith or the Jedi.

As for Bane, he is regarded as one of the elite bounty hunters throughout the Clone Wars. Known for his ruthless efficiency, Bane can extract himself from nearly any predicament with his quick reflexes. He faces a former ally now serving as a marshal, setting the stage for a riveting showdown.

During a tense moment, someone tells Bane, “This revenge, I hope it was worth it,” to which he confidently replies, “It will be.”

Tales of the Underworld features Nika Futterman voicing Asajj Ventress and Corey Burton as Cad Bane. The voice cast also includes Artt Butler, Lane Factor, AJ LoCascio, Clare Grant, Dawn-Lyen Gardner, and Eric Lopez.

Created by Lucasfilm’s Chief Creative Officer and renowned Star Wars filmmaker Dave Filoni, Tales of the Underworld will be under his supervision as the director. Filoni has also co-written and produced the upcoming live-action Star Wars film set for 2026, titled The Mandalorian & Grogu.

Fans can look forward to the premiere of Tales of the Underworld on May 4 on Disney+, a date celebrated by enthusiasts as Star Wars Day.
