Marvel’s ‘Doctor Aphra’ to Be Adapted Into ‘Star Wars’ Audiobook

Doctor Aphra will be written by YA novelist Sarah Kuhn, adapting the work of Kieron Gillen and Salvador Larroca, and will feature a voice cast to be announced.

This isn’t the first appearance outside comics for the character; in 2017, Doctor Aphra won a fan vote to be made into an action figure, an indicator of her popularity amongst the larger Star Wars fandom.

The announcement was made via StarWars.com, with Kuhn providing a video introduction to the project, which can be seen below. Doctor Aphra: An Audiobook Original is set to be released July 21.
