Skeleton Crew Dropped A Wild Star Wars Twist For Jude Law, But It’s That A+ Cameo That Impressed Me Even More

by

As a long-time Star Wars enthusiast with countless hours spent dissecting every detail of the saga, I must say that Episode 3 of Skeleton Crew has truly been a rollercoaster ride! The unexpected twist regarding Jude Law’s character, Captain Silvo, has left me utterly astounded. It’s not often that such a significant reveal is met with such subtlety, and I find myself eagerly awaiting the unraveling of his enigmatic backstory.

The following contains spoilers for Episode 3 of Star Wars: Skeleton Crew.

From the enthusiastic responses of many Disney+ subscribers, it appears that “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” could become one of the top, or even the top live-action “Star Wars” series thus far. With just three episodes aired so far, the blend of “Star Wars” and “The Goonies” – the story about a group of kids navigating a hostile universe – has proven to be an exciting adventure filled with remarkable moments that are pure fun.

In the latest installment of “Skeleton Crew,” entitled ‘Very Interesting, As An Astrogation Problem’, there are two standout instances worth mentioning. Firstly, a significant plot twist unfolds concerning one of the show’s principal characters. Secondly, a subtle detail may have gone unnoticed unless you possess exceptional listening skills.

Jude Law’s Skeleton Crew Character Isn’t Who We Thought

In Episode 3 of Skeleton Crew, there’s an unexpected revelation: The character played by Jude Law, who seemed to be a Jedi, isn’t as we thought. Despite the series suggesting his character was a Jedi, it turns out that might have been a trick. Though he presented himself as Ja Na Nawood, had Force abilities, wore robes like a Jedi, and appeared to be one, the episode soon made clear that he was someone else entirely.

In essence, Captain Silvo, the pirate leader in the initial scenes of “Skeleton Crew“, is portrayed as a character in this scenario. Following the discovery that the treasure they were pursuing wasn’t on their ship, Silvo’s crew rebelled against him. Instead of being executed, it appears that Silvo was confined by his former comrades.

What makes the twist especially interesting is that not only does the episode reveal the twist to the audience, but before the episode is over, the reality is also revealed to our other main characters. The series could have used the truth as a major source of tension, but instead, the show will be focused on how the titular crew work together knowing they’re not quite working toward the same goals.

There remains much unexplored detail concerning Law’s personality, including the mystery behind his ability to manipulate the Force. It’s plausible that Silvo might not have been an officially recognized Jedi, but there’s speculation that he could have been brought up as one before the fall of the Republic.

Skeleton Crew’s New Episode Had A Surprising Cameo You Probably Missed

Still, the truth behind Jude Law’s character in Skeleton Crew may not have been quite as surprising as the character who revealed the truth to us. According to the episode credits, the character, an alien named Benjar Pranic was voiced by Doc Ock himself, Alfred Molina. It’s amazing Molina didn’t spoil the appearance.

His name is listed towards the end of the credits, making it quite easy to miss, which seems ironic given that such a prominent actor had a minor part. In fact, this is typical in contemporary Star Wars productions; many well-known actors have opted for inconspicuous appearances instead of leading roles. For instance, Daniel Craig can be spotted as a stormtrooper in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but because his face isn’t shown, it’s possible you wouldn’t recognize him.

From now on, I’ll definitely scrutinize the credits of every upcoming episode of “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” to find out if there are any familiar faces secretly appearing. It’s another great reason to continue enjoying this fantastic series.
