Seth Green: Star Wars: Detours would need upgrading for streaming

We’re in a golden age of Star Wars streaming: The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, Obi‑Wan, and Maul – Shadow Lord are among the small‑screen adventures on Disney Plus. Spare a thought for those that didn’t make it, including Star Wars: Detours, a Robot Chicken‑style animation from Seth Green. Thirty‑nine episodes were produced but were shelved after Disney’s purchase of Lucasfilm.

Green says Detours would have to be edited and upgraded, with new work done, before it could appear on a streaming service. He added that he doesn’t think the company is willing to commit the spend to update and release it when they can’t see a clear benefit.

With Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan coming in to head up Lucasfilm after Kennedy’s departure, there remains some hope that Detours could take an unlikely left turn onto Disney Plus. For now, hearing about hijinks such as Vader’s Life Day celebrations is a snapshot of what could have been.
