According to Deadline , Lars of the Stars will follow the titular space pirate and his crew on their adventures across the galaxy. It also states the show will explore 'the past, present and future of the universe.' This raises questions about when in the chronology Lars of the Stars will be set. Both The Movie and Future were set two years after the final episode of the original series .
On the original series, Lars was initially a moody young man who worked at the Beach City donut shop, The Big Donut. There, he had a somewhat complicated (and arguably toxic) relationship with his coworker, Sadie Miller (Kate Micucci). However, as the series went on, Lars became increasingly involved with the galactic-scale adventures of the Crystal Gems. By the conclusion of the series, he had begun a new life as a space pirate.

In Future , Lars had returned to Earth, where he opened a bakery called Spacetries (say it out loud). But later in the season, he once again headed to the stars with his crew, the Off Colors. What further adventures await as Lars and the Off Colors explore the universe together?
