STAR WARS: SKELETON CREW Trailer Shows a Kid’s Guide to the Galaxy

As a gamer with decades of Star Wars lore under my belt and a soft spot for coming-of-age stories, I must say that the trailer for “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” left me positively buzzing! The suburban setting was an intriguing twist that caught my attention right away.


Titled “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew,” this space adventure has been in development for what feels like an eternity. However, at D23, we finally got a glimpse of it with the release of our first trailer! The movie, set to premiere on Disney+ on December 3, seems to draw inspiration from “The Goonies” in space. Jude Law takes center stage as the captain of a band of misfit kids who commandeer a starship called “The Onyx Cinder.” The story unfolds in a galaxy post-“Return of the Jedi.” Jon Watts was present to unveil the exciting new trailer for “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew,” which you can now watch here:

The trailer unveiled an unexpected setting in the Star Wars saga – suburban neighborhoods. This tale, reminiscent of Amblin productions, revolves around a group of school kids who stumble upon a dilapidated Jedi Temple, embarking on a perilous journey. As for Law, it’s no surprise he’s a Jedi, isn’t it?

Alongside the trailer, I’d like to share the official summary of “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew,” provided by Lucasfilm:

Subsequently, they find themselves adrift in an unfamiliar and perilous universe.
