Star and Mewni Creek/Tropes

This page contains spoilers to Star vs. the Forces of Evil. You have been warned!
The sequel to Star vs. the Forces of Evil, Star and Mewni Creek, follows the events of the previous show's series finale after Star Butterfly and Marco Diaz's world had merged after they'd destroyed the magic. Upon their reunion, Star moves back in with Marco and the two embark throughout the merged Echo Creek and Mewni with their friends and then some.
This series not only continues the adventures of Star and Marco, but gives Star's dimensional friends a place in the main cast. The show also returns several characters from the original series' previous seasons, especially Alfonzo and Ferguson. And the biggest surprise is, this show takes on a more lighter role, as well as center on a comedic tone much akin to its predecessor's first season while keeping the heart and drama intact.
The show has a premiere on May 13, 2024, on Disney XD; which makes this as Star's return to XD after Forces of Evil moved to Disney Channel for its fourth season.
A theatrical feature film titled Star on the Run, is released on July 4, 2025.
