ARTICLE ADStar Wars: Visions has unveiled a new trailer, new images, and its full voice cast, for the original Japanese version and the English dubs. Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Neil Patrick Harris, Alison Brie (Community), David Harbour (Stranger Things), Simu Liu (Shang-Chi), Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights), Lucy Liu (Charlie's Angels), Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians), Karen Fukuhara (The Boys), and George Takei (Star Trek) are among the English voice cast, with Temuera Morrison reprising his Star Wars role as Boba Fett. Masaki Terasoma, Akeno Watanabe, Hiroyuki Yoshino, Akio Kaneda, Tokuyoshi Kawashima, Takaya Kamikawa, Chinatsu Akasaki, Shinichiro Miki, and Kenichi Ogata are among the anime veterans who are part of the Japanese voice cast.
The new trailer for Star Wars: Visions — a nine-part anthology series set in a galaxy far, far away — is also available in both Japanese and English, that gives you an idea of what to expect from the voice cast. Personally, I prefer the Japanese version, and not just because it fits the anime visual aesthetic of Star Wars: Visions. Seven Japanese studios and dozens of Japanese animators have worked on the new Star Wars series, including Kamikaze Douga, Twin Engine's Geno Studio and and Studio Colorido, TRIGGER, Kinema Citrus, Science Saru, and Production I.G. Lucasfilm previously gave us details on all nine episodes. Here's the full English and Japanese voice cast for Star Wars: Visions, divided by its nine episodes, via Disney+:
