There is more than one new Star Wars TV series in the pipeline
Disney’s Bob Iger tells investors that the company is currently developing multiple Star Wars TV series.
“We are developing not just one, but a few Star Wars series specifically for the Disney direct to consumer app. We’ve mentioned that and we are close to being able to reveal at least one of the interties that is developing that for us.

The show(s) are expected to debut on Disney’s direct-to-consumer digital platform, which is itself not expected until 2019.
