Warning: Spoilers from Lucasfilm's D23 Expo 2022 showcase are included in this article.
Lucasfilm has been making a comeback as of late, especially since the success of The Mandalorian. At D23 Expo 2022, Jon Favreau reminded the audience that the hit series hadn't even debuted yet when the previous Expo went down in 2019.

Since then, an entire live-action Star Wars universe has come to thrive because of the careful crafting of Favreau, Dave Filoni, and Deborah Chow.
But Lucasfilm isn't just about Star Wars. Here's everything that Lucasfilm previewed at D23 Expo 2022:
1.Andor
2.Willow
3.Tales of the Jedi
4.The Bad Batch Season 2
Filoni also let the audience know that The Bad Batch Season 2 is finally coming! The series was set to hit Disney+ in fall 2022 but will now start Jan. 4. 2023, with the first two episodes of a 16-episode second season.
5.Ahsoka
Next, Jon Favreau joined Filoni onstage and spoke about the Ahsoka series. Favreau dove into a passionate speech about how much he loved working on Star Wars every single day, and it was just a heartfelt moment. A photo of Rosario Dawson as the titular character was shown, and Filoni also revealed the first look at Sabine Wren (Natasha Liu Bordizzo) in the series. Ahsoka is slated to debut on Disney+ in 2023 and stars Dawson, Bordizzo, Hayden Christensen, Eman Esfandi, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Ivanna Sakhno, and Ray Stevenson.
6.Skeleton Crew
More stars! Jude Law hopped onstage alongside Skeleton Crew creator Jon Watts to give fans...not much! All we were told is that the series will take place in the New Republic and is a coming-of-age story. Oh, and we also got to see a shot of Law in costume. I love the director, so I trust this will be a banger. Filming is still going on, and the rest is pretty much under wraps.
7.The Mandalorian Season 3
In Pascal we trust.
Giancarlo Esposito REALLY loves this franchise! Same.
8.Indiana Jones
Harrison Ford strolled onstage to give fans a first look at Indiana Jones. Director James Mangold and Phoebe Waller-Bridge joined the legend in the moment, and fans went bananas. The trailer we were shown has not been released online yet but featured some epic digital de-aging on Ford. The action sequences looked dizzying and gorgeous at the same time, while Ford's iconic wit was on full display.
It appears that Mangold will take fans on an emotional adventure through the past and the present. Indiana Jones is set to hit theaters June 30, 2023, and stars Ford, Waller-Bridge, Mads Mikkelsen, Boyd Holbrook, Antonio Banderas, Toby Jones, Shaunette Renée Wilson, and Thomas Kretschmann.
