How to Watch Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi: Release Date on Disney Plus
The release date and trailer of Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi were revealed at D23 Expo. It’s set to premiere on Disney+ on October 26 and you can watch all six episodes right away.
Disney Plus is available in many countries across North America, Europe, the Asia-Pacific region and Latin America. If you already have an account and are in a country where Disney Plus is available, you can still access Disney+ by logging in. While Star Wars content looks to be available in all Disney+ regions, keep in mind that other content may vary in some countries due to licensing agreements.
If you’re in a country where Disney+ isn’t available yet, you can use a VPN to connect to a country that has Disney Plus. We’ll show you how to do this a bit later.
Where to Watch Other Star Wars Content
Disney Plus is the home of the Star Wars universe. All nine episodes and the spin-off movies are available in 4K high-definition, along with multiple live-action series, animated series and documentaries.
That means Disney Plus is the best platform for hardcore Star Wars fans, as well as newbies. There are a few orders you can watch the movies and shows in, such as chronological order or release date order, but it all depends on your preference. There are also fan chronologies to consider, like the Machete Order, the Godfather Order or the Rinster Order, all of which offer a slightly different take on the order you should watch them in.
Watching in chronological order means you’ll see the whole storyline unfold in sequence. However, some argue that this order isn’t the best choice. New fans will have to start with The Phantom Menace and will learn who Luke’s father is before the big reveal in The Empire Strikes Back (assuming anyone in our galaxy still doesn’t know that).
That said, watching in release date order might make it more difficult to understand the story. It’s up to you how you watch it, so we’ve listed the Star Wars timeline in both orders below.
Note that The Bad Batch, Andor and The Mandalorian all have confirmed upcoming seasons, while there are rumors circulating of second seasons for both Obi-Wan Kenobi and The Book of Boba Fett. We also haven’t included other upcoming Star Wars projects like Ahsoka or The Acolyte, as they’re hard to definitively place in the timeline without more information.

The Best VPNs for Watching Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi
We’ve listed the top two VPNs for watching the new Star Wars anthology series, Tales of the Jedi, and any other content from the Star Wars universe. We’ll start with our favorite VPN, ExpressVPN.
1. ExpressVPN
Pros:
- Fast speeds
- Accesses all streaming apps
- Servers in 105 countries
Cons:
- Expensive
ExpressVPN is our go-to VPN for streaming — and pretty much anything else. It can unblock streaming platforms easily without the need to pick a special server. It also has fast speeds to ensure you have the best resolution and aren’t left waiting for the stream to buffer. Plus, its server network covers 105 countries, meaning you can access just about any country where Disney Plus is available.
Although we’re only talking about watching Star Wars movies and shows, it’s important to protect your devices with a VPN anyway. ExpressVPN provides strong security to protect you from online dangers. It’s certainly more expensive than other top VPNs, but it’s a great service, as you can read in our ExpressVPN review, and you pay less by opting for a longer plan.
There’s also a 30-day money-back guarantee.
- Unlimited GB

- Yes
2. NordVPN
Pros:
- Fastest VPN
- Cheap 2-year plan
- Thousands of servers
Cons:
- Clunky mobile map UI
NordVPN is another great choice for watching Star Wars stories. Its NordLynx protocol not only ensures your device stays protected while streaming, but it’s also optimized to provide the best speeds available. It can easily unblock streaming services, and there are thousands of servers available in around 60 countries.
It’s easy to use, providing an interactive map for choosing servers. However, we find it a bit tricky to use on mobile. NordVPN is cheaper than ExpressVPN, but only if you choose the two-year plan. That can be a little off-putting, but you can use the 30-day money-back guarantee to see if you like it. You can also read our NordVPN review.
