Lucasfilm showed off the first trailer for their Star Wars: The Skeleton Crew series as part of its D23 presentation. The show centres on a group of kids lost in a galaxy far, far away, as they try to make their way home. The show hails from Jon Watts, who directed the MCU’s Spider-Man trilogy starring Tom Holland, and frequent collaborator Christopher Ford. Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni are, as per usual, executive producing the series. The show is set in the New Republic era of the Star Wars canon, aka in the years after the Empire’s fall in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

A team of renowned directors worked on the project, including Everything Everywhere All At Once‘s Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, The Green Knight‘s David Lowery, Jake Schreier, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Lee Isaac Chung. The series was written by Ford and Watts, excluding the fifth and sixth episodes which were writeen by Myung Joh Wesner. The cast stars Jude Law alongside young actors Ravi Cabot-Conyers, Kyriana Kratter, Robert Timothy Smith and Ryan Kiera Armstrong.
