10 Star Wars Shows That NEED To Happen

9. Luke And The Birth Of The First Order

The jump from Return of the Jedi to The Force Awakens is massive, but how much do we really know about the events that transpired in that time? Sure, there are books about it, but the growth of Luke Skywalker as a Jedi master, the birth and youth of Kylo Ren, and the rise of the The First Order are never shown to us on-screen.

We get only snippets, but how cool would it be to get an animated series of this time period? Beginning with the fall of the Empire, it could follow Luke through his attempts to rebuild the Jedi order and his search for others with strong connections to the Force.

We could also watch the blossoming relationship between Han Solo and Leia, and be taken for an emotional and painful journey as they attempt to raise their son who longs for a deeper sense of purpose in the galaxy. We could also bear witness to the inception of the Knights of Ren, and what strains it places on an ageing Luke's commitment to the Jedi code.

It could be the Star Wars story we have been waiting to see since 2015, and who knows, Mark Hamill could even make a return and provide the voice of his most famous role. Tell us that wouldn't be amazing!

We want to see what happened to the apparently peaceful galaxy following Episode VI. It's a big part of the new Star Wars story that we deserve to see.
