Dave Filoni speaks at length to Amy Ratcliffe about the final episodes of The Clone Wars, an absolutely engrossing interview that delves into those final stories from the Clone Wars that brought to an end 15 years of work that started on Cartoon Network and ended on Disney Plus.

Filoni was asked whether or not there should be more adventures from the Clone Wars.

Dave Filoni: I don’t know. Personally for me, probably not. I have a lot of things I’m excited that we’re doing looking forward. I think it’s hard because I so appreciate the fan support, and I appreciate just how excited everybody was that we were back. I understand them wanting more and more episodes. The people that worked on it—myself and the team, basically all the leads—they were on the original run and I think it shows. We’re really thankful we got to finish it. But I also think creatively, you always want to move forward. I think you could get stuck in a situation where suddenly we’re doing all these stories again, but where is the ending? I don’t want that feeling. I want you to feel like this had a purpose and it rounded out and let’s find something new that’s exciting. We’ve got to look forward a bit here, but boy that was really satisfying to get to do. I can’t even tell you how grateful we all are that people were there for it to watch and support it. Disney+ supported us greatly to get this done. It was a great effort by everybody that understood what Clone Wars meant to people. It feels good. I’m glad it’s done.
