Star Wars: The Clone Wars Originally Cancelled For 'Getting Too Graphic' For Disney

People are certainly glad that Star Wars: The Clone Wars will return for its highly anticipated final season. However, the reason why it was cancelled in the first place is shockingly simple.

Boba Fett voice actor Daniel Logan recently made an appearance at the London Comic-Con (via ComicBook.com). Logan revealed that Disney initially cancelled the show because of its violent content.

The voice actor added that Boba's character arc may have been "just too graphic, I think, for what Disney was used to." Logan also revealed that Boba's fight against Cad Bane was one of the episodes that was never finished.

The revelation is certainly a disappointment for fans who were looking forward to Boba's development. Hopefully, we'll get to see this in the upcoming seventh season.

It's understandable why Disney felt Clone Wars might be too graphic for their usual content. However, it's great to know that the House of Mouse has decided to give fans what they want and work on Season 7.

Dave Filoni will return as showrunner in the new season. Although Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 7 has not yet been given an official release date, the series is expected to air on Disney's streaming service in 2019.
