As a longtime Star Wars enthusiast who grew up with the original trilogy and watched in awe as the franchise expanded over the years, I couldn’t be more thrilled about the upcoming series, Star Wars: The Skeleton Crew. The trailer alone was enough to send shivers down my spine and ignite the same sense of wonder that first drew me into this galaxy far, far away.
At last, the team behind “The Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” is taking shape! On Friday during the D23 event, Lucasfilm unveiled the initial trailer for this upcoming coming-of-age story, giving viewers an early peek.
The series Skeleton Crew follows a band of youths navigating through a distant galaxy, aiming to return home. The show is orchestrated by Jon Watts, known for directing the Spider-Man trilogy featuring Tom Holland, and his frequent partner Christopher Ford. In the same creative vein as The Mandalorian, this series is overseen in executive production by Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. The show stars Jude Law and unfolds during the New Republic era of the Star Wars timeline (the time period following the fall of the Empire in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi).
A talented team of film directors, including those behind “Everything Everywhere All At Once” (Daniels) and “The Green Knight” (David Lowery), are involved in this project. The cast features up-and-coming actors like Ravi Cabot-Conyers, Kyriana Kratter, Robert Timothy Smith, and Ryan Kiera Armstrong.
More recently, Lucasfilm has added another TV series to Disney+, starting with “The Mandalorian” which significantly contributed to the service’s growth five years ago. This was followed by spinoffs like “The Book of Boba Fett” and “Ahoska”, as well as popular shows such as “Andor” and “Obi-Wan Kenobi”. In 2026, Lucasfilm plans to revisit the big screen with “Grogu and the Mandalorian”, marking their first film since 2019’s “The Rise of Skywalker”.
Skeleton Crew launches on Dec. 3.
