Lucasfilm dropped an official trailer for Star Wars: Skeleton Crew at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event.
The Star Wars live-action spin-off series starring Jude Law, created by Spider-Man Homecoming director Jon Watts and writer Christopher Ford, who also serve as the showrunners, follows along as the kids get lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy and have to find their way home, meeting unlikely allies and enemies along the way.
This is Star Wars goes Goonies with a Spielbergian suburban twist and I'm here for a coming-of-age series in a galaxy far, far away this holiday season.
Individual episodic directors are Jon Watts, David Lowery, the Daniels (Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert), Jake Schreier, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Lee Isaac Chung. The season was written by Christopher Ford and Jon Watts, with two episodes by Myung Joh Wesner. The series is executive produced by Christopher Ford, Jon Watts, Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson, along with co-executive producers Chris Buongiorno, Karen Gilchrist, Carrie Beck and producers Susan McNamara and John Bartnicki.
Law was onstage at D23 and said the series harkens back to the Amblin fantasy films of the 1980s, which many fans (myself included) grew up watching.
“I fell in love with Star Wars when I was a 10-year-old boy,” he said. “[This] series is told from the perspective of the kids.”
Skeleton Crew starts streaming with a two-episode series premiere in the UK on 4th December on Disney+.
