Emma Myers, who gained international recognition for her breakout performance in Netflix’s Wednesday, is officially stepping into the world of Star Wars. At only 23, the actress has already built a standout career with roles in A Minecraft Movie, which nearly crossed the billion-dollar mark at the box office, and the crime drama A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder. Now, she adds another legendary franchise to her growing Hollywood resume.
Star Wars: Visions Season 3 Official Cast
Lucasfilm has unveiled the English-language cast for Star Wars: Visions Season 3 — the acclaimed animated anthology series streaming on Disney+. Known for its unique storytelling and diverse animation styles, Visions delivers fresh takes on the galaxy far, far away without overlapping storylines.
