Star Wars is a huge series that has grown really big since the release of the first film in 1979, enriching itself not only with new theatrical productions, but also television productions. So much of it has been created that it's hard to find your way around, especially for new viewers who want to get acquainted with the Star Wars universe for the first time. This is made all the more difficult by the fact that the movies and TV series don’t come out in chronological order.

So we've compiled a list that places all the films and TV shows from the Star Wars universe in the order in which the events take place. Therefore, don’t be surprised that some older productions are found after the newer ones, since the creators of movies and TV series from this world make prequels that mix a bit in this order.

In what order to watch Star Wars?

  • Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (Episode I) (1999) – movie
  • Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (Episode II) (2002) – movie
  • Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) – movie
  • Star Wars: The Clone Wars (series, 2008) – TV show
  • Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi (2022) – TV show
  • Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith (Episode III) (2005) – movie
  • Star Wars: Tales of the Empire (2024) – TV show
  • Star Wars: The Bad Batch (2021) – TV show
  • Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) – movie
  • Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022) – TV show
  • Andor (2023) – TV show
  • Star Wars Rebels (2014) – TV show
  • Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) – movie
  • Star Wars: A New Hope (Episode IV) (1977) – movie
  • Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (Episode V) (1980) – movie
  • Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (Episode VI) (1983) – movie

It's worth bearing in mind that Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi, Star Wars: Tales of the Empire are anthologies and their action is spread out over a wide range of time, and that the action of Star Wars Resistance begins before The Force Awakens and then also runs beyond the events of that film.

You can watch all Star Wars movies and TV series on Disney+.

Below you can watch the trailer for the complete Skywalker Saga, which consists of 9 films from Episode I to Episode IX.
