Following the announcement of Volume 2 last year, executive producer James Waugh explained that Visions would not become part of the canonicalised Star Wars universe, but that these short films could influence future storytellers.
“That’s right, every piece of Star Wars influences future Star Wars storytellers in some form or other,” Waugh told CBR. “So are there plans to integrate Visions into the timeline saga storytelling? Not currently, but I have no doubt that will see things that were in Visions become part of the fabric of Star Wars over the next decades.”
