At D23, Lucasfilm pulled back the curtain on Star Wars: Skeleton Crew with the release of the first official trailer. The new series, starring Jude Law, is set to explore uncharted territories in the Star Wars universe through a coming-of-age story. The plot centers on four young adventurers—played by Ravi Cabot-Conyers, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Kyriana Kratter, and Robert Timothy Smith—who find themselves lost in a dangerous galaxy after making a mysterious discovery on their home planet. Their journey brings them into contact with Jod Na Nawood, a quick-witted Jedi portrayed by Jude Law, whose enigmatic charm adds a fresh dynamic to the franchise.
Directed by a stellar lineup including Jon Watts (Spider-Man: No Way Home), David Lowery (Pete's Dragon), and the Daniels (Everything Everywhere All At Once), the trailer promises a visually stunning experience that rivals cinematic releases. The series aims to bring a grand scope to the small screen, blending adventure with the rich lore of the Star Wars universe.
Adding to the excitement, fans were also treated to a sneak peek of the upcoming The Mandalorian season, featuring a tantalizing teaser with Grogu. Though the footage isn't online yet, reports from D23 describe breathtaking visuals, including an ice world reminiscent of Hoth and the appearance of AT-AT Walkers, setting the stage for an epic continuation of Din Djarin's journey.
With Star Wars: Skeleton Crew set to debut in 2024 and The Mandalorian returning soon, the galaxy far, far away continues to expand, promising thrilling adventures for both new and longtime fans alike.
