Simply a few week in the past, phrase leaked that director Jon Watts had left the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the Star Wars galaxy. When he dropped out of directing Marvel’s upcoming Unbelievable 4 film after helming three consecutive Spider-Man movies, Watts shifted over to Star Wars, the place he was secretly engaged on a beforehand unannounced TV sequence for Disney+.
Nicely, now it’s been introduced. At Star Wars Celebration, Lucasfilm formally unveiled what’s now dubbed Skeleton Crew. (Beforehand, its working title was Grammar Rodeo, a Simpsons reference.) Additionally they revealed the present, from Jon Watts and author Christopher Ford, will star none apart from Unbelievable Beasts star Jude Regulation.
As for the present itself, right here was what was beforehand revealed in regards to the present per week or two in the past:
The present takes place in the course of the submit–Return of the Jedi reconstruction that follows the autumn of the Empire, the identical as The Mandalorian, however its plot stays a secret. It’s created and executive-produced by director Jon Watts and author Chris Ford, who made ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ for Marvel …Inside Lucasfilm, the present is being described as a galactic model of basic Amblin coming-of-age journey movies of the ’80s.
It’s not clear but who Regulation is enjoying on the present. (Clearly, it’s not one of many youngsters who’s coming of age on the planet of Star Wars.)
It’s slightly disappointing that yet one more Star Wars present is ready on the similar time interval as The Mandalorian and The Ebook of Boba Fett and the upcoming Ahsoka, simply because the extra exhibits Lucasfilm makes throughout that interval the much less particular they really feel (and the extra it looks like they’re intentionally attempting to make some form of epic Avengers-esque crossover between them). However Watts is a gifted director, and he’s good at coming-of-age tales. That a lot, not less than, can be a brand new twist for Star Wars. (Until you rely, y’know, the unique Star Wars.)
Skeleton Crew can be streaming on Disney+ a while in 2023.
