New Delhi: Streaming platform Disney Plus is all set to premiere its new anime anthology series Star Wars: Visions on 22 September. The platform and Lucasfilm unveiled the first look of the much-anticipated anime series on Sunday.

The OTT platform also announced the names of the seven Japanese anime studios that are behind the nine short films in the series during the Anime Expo Lite event. The studios are Kamikaze Douga, Geno Studio (Twin Engine), Studio Colorido (Twin Engine), Trigger, Kinema Citrus, Science Saru, and Production IG.

According to Variety, each anime studio will use their signature animation and storytelling styles to deliver their visions of George Lucas’ Star Wars universe.

“From the beginning, stories told in the Star Wars galaxy have counted Japanese mythology and the films of Akira Kurosawa among their many influences, and these new visions will further explore that cultural heritage through the unique animation style and perspective of each anime studio,” stated Disney Plus in a press release.

Jacqui Lopez, James Waugh, and Josh Rimes of Lucasfilm are executive producing the show along with Qubic Pictures’ Justin Leach. Kanako Shirasaki is producing.

Apart from the names of each studio and episode, Disney Plus also gave fans a sneak peek into the creation of `Star Wars: Visions` with a three-minute teaser video shared on YouTube.
