Disney XD Renews LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures

Disney XD has greenlit a sophomore season of the animated comedy adventure series LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures, which will return to the channel this summer.

The second season of the show will continue the story of the Freemakers as they join the Rebellion in their fight against the Empire. Prior to the debut of the second season, five new shorts that fill in the story line between seasons one and two will air on May 4 on Disney XD in celebration of the Star Wars fan-generated “May the 4th Be with You” holiday. A peek of the upcoming season of LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures will also be revealed at the Star Wars Celebration in Orlando, Florida, this month.

The season two voice cast includes Nicolas Cantu (Rowan), Vanessa Lengies (Kordi), Eugene Byrd (Zander), Matthew Wood (RO-GR), Trevor Devall (Emperor), Dana Snyder (Graballa), Vanessa Marshall (Hera), Yvette Nicole Brown (Lt. Valeria), Corey Burton (Quarrie), James Urbaniak (M-OC) and Matt Sloan (Darth Vader).

LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures is a production of Wil Film, the LEGO Group and Lucasfilm. It was developed for TV by Bill Motz and Bob Roth (Penguins of Madagascar), who also serve as executive producers alongside Torsten Jacobson (LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales) and Jill Wilfert (The LEGO Movie). Producers are Carrie Beck (Star Wars Rebels), Jason Cosler (LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: Avengers Reassembled!), Jake Blais and John McCormack.

Marc Buhaj, the senior VP of programming and general manager at Disney XD, said, “The series creators expertly deliver an equal amount of comedy and signature Star Wars adventure into their storytelling. We’re looking forward to bringing our viewers a brand-new season of galactic adventures with the Freemaker family throughout summer.”
