The official Star Wars website has announced that the animated series the bad consignment will have a space at the Star Wars Celebration in May
One of the great surprises of last year was the premiere in Disney+ from Star Wars: The Bad Batch. The animated series proved to be a worthy successor to Clone Wars. Kicking off with a chilling sequence showing the moments of Order 66’s execution, and after leaving one of their own behind, the clone force 99 spent the rest of the season performing mercenary jobs as the Empire conquered the galaxy in their ranks. first days in power
The season one finale saw the destruction of the city of Tipoca on Kamino, forcing Crosshair to work with his former squadmates to survive. Fans were pleasantly surprised to see that Crosshair would ultimately remain with the Empire, meaning that he would continue to be the main antagonist of the series. For Omega and the rest of the clone force 99, there was no set destination as they left their homeworld, leaving room for the story to continue anywhere in a galaxy far, far away.
Also of interest is the continuation of the cloning story that was shown in the last scene of the ending. The life of the Kaminoan scientist, Nala Se, was spared so that she could work for the Empire, and she was transported by Imperial commandos to what appeared to be the planet Wayland, first introduced in heir to the empire by Timothy Zahn. Se’s connection to Omega is far from over, and his work could show us the research that led to the creation of the Senile Sidious clone in Episode IX.
Since then we have not heard from the second season, already confirmed, and many fans expected it this spring, but the removal of the release date in Star Wars Insider magazine put it in doubt. Fortunately, it seems that the Star Wars Celebration will not bring news in this regard.
The official Star Wars website officially revealed that the bad consignment, will feature a panel at the convention, and executive producers Brad Rau and Jen Corbett, screenwriter Matt Michnovetz, and voice actors Dee Bradley Baker and Michelle Ang have been confirmed to attend. The panel will take place on Sunday, May 29, and promises to look back on the first season and hint at what to expect in season 2.

All Star Wars fans may think that the 2nd season of the bad consignment it’s a little late. Even those who weren’t crazy about the first season in general have acknowledged their appreciation for where the story went, particularly the twists with Crosshair, the Wrecker’s inhibitor chip malfunctioning, and the destruction of the cloning facility. of Kamino. With the SW Celebration on the horizon, it was clear that a panel of the series could not be missing at the convention.
Assuming the panel follows the trend set by the previous Celebration presentations for the animated series, the first half will be devoted to reviewing the first season. This will give the executive producers and story editor a chance to explain the creative decisions they made, and Baker and Ang will be able to weigh in on how they worked to develop their character arcs.
The host will change course to ask the team about the second season and where it is going the bad consignment and Crosshair. We can also look forward to the first official images as well as an update on the appearance of the characters in the series and the places they might visit, like Coruscant for example. And we have to wait for its premiere date to be announced on Disney +.
