n the Colossus, a forgotten refueling
platform on Castilon—a watery
planet perched on the edge of the
Outer Rim—there are no Jedi Knights
or Galactic Senates, no Sith Lords
to challenge or Force-wielders to
maintain peace, just regular people like the simple shell-
folk keeping the engines running, and mechanics who
dare to dream of becoming racers.
Star Wars Resistance, the latest in a more than 10-
year run of Star Wars animated series, shines a light on a
different kind of hero, telling the story of Kazuda Xiono,
a former pilot in the New Republic Navy who gives
it all up to become a spy for the Resistance cause. Set
30 years after Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (1983), and
six months before the events of Star Wars: The Force
Awakens (2015), Season One reveals a glimpse of how
the First Order gets a foothold on Castilon and takes us
to the brink of the devastation reaped by Starkiller Base.
Whether you’re just discovering the series for the fi rst
time or planning to rewatch it ahead of the premiere of
Season Two later this year, here’s everything you need to
