What happens

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew is an American television miniseries created by Jon Watts and Christopher Ford for the streaming service Disney+. It is part of the Star Wars franchise, taking place in the same timeframe as The Mandalorian and its other interconnected spin-offs after the events of the film Return of the Jedi (1983). Skeleton Crew tells the story of four kids searching for their home planet after getting lost in the galaxy, and the strange aliens and dangerous places they encounter on their adventure. Jude Law stars in the series with Ravi Cabot-Conyers, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Kyriana Kratter, Robert Timothy Smith, and Nick Frost. Watts approached Lucasfilm about telling an Amblin Entertainment-style coming-of-age story set in the Star Wars universe, and he was developing the series with Ford by early 2022. It was officially announced that May at Star Wars Celebration, with Law revealed to be starring. Filming began by September 2022 in Los Angeles, and wrapped by late January 2023. The child actors in the series were revealed in April 2023. Kathleen Kennedy, Jon Favreau, and Dave Filoni returned from The Mandalorian as additional executive producers. Skeleton Crew premiered on Disney+ on December 2, 2024, with episodes released weekly until January 14, 2025. The series received generally positive reviews from critics. It received seventeen nominations at the 4th Children's and Family Emmy Awards, winning four, including Outstanding Young Teen Series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
