Star Wars: Skeleton Crew — which was first teased back in May 2022 and hails from Spider-Man: No Way Home director Jon Watts and Spider-Man: Homecoming writer Chris Ford — stars two-time Academy Award nominee Law and is set during the post-Return of the Jedi reconstruction following the Empire’s demise (that is, the same timeframe as The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka).
Specifically, Skeleton Crew follows the journey of four kids who make a mysterious discovery on their seemingly safe home planet, then get lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy, crossing paths with the likes of Jod Na Nawood, the mysterious character played by Law. “Finding their way home — and meeting unlikely allies and enemies — will be a greater adventure than they ever imagined,” says the official synopsis.
In addition to Law, the cast includes Academy Award nominee Kerry Condon (The Banshees of Inisherin), Ravi Cabot-Conyers (#BlackAF), Ryan Kiera Armstrong (American Horror Story: Double Feature), Kyriana Kratter (BUNK’D), Tunde Adebimpe (The Girlfriend Experience), Nick Frost (The Nevers) and Robert Timothy Smith.
Taking turns directing the live-action Star Wars series’ directors are Watts, The Daniels (Everything Everywhere All at Once), Bryce Dallas Howard (The Mandalorian), David Lowery (The Green Knight), Jake Scherier (Lodge 49, BEEF) and Lee Isaac Chung (Minari, The Mandalorian).
