A brand-new animated Star Wars series has just hit streaming service Disney+, which brings new focus to characters from the prequel trilogy era.

Tales of the Jedi is an anthology series made up of six episodes in total, with the series being split into two paths focusing on a different character – one follows Ahsoka Tano and the other follows Count Dooku.

The series is animated in the same style as The Clone Wars, with episodes showing a different era in the lives of the two respective characters – for example, we'll see a young Count Dooku before he succumbed to the dark side of the force.
