New Pirate Characters Revealed for STAR WARS: SKELETON CREW at D23 Expo

Thanks to an exhibit at Disney’s D23 Expo, we’re getting a look at four new characters set to appear in Lucasfilm’s upcoming series. Star Wars: Skeletal Crew.

This is a crew of evil pirates led by Vane, who previously appeared in The Mandalorian series. It seems like a fun and interesting group of Star Wars characters.

We’re hoping to see a first trailer during tonight’s big D23 presentation, but we’ll just have to wait and see.

The series has been described as “a galactic take on the classic Amblin coming-of-age adventure films of the ’80s.” The story will follow four young boys on a small planet, who end up lost in the Star Wars galaxy and embark on a journey to find their way home.

The film was pitched to Lucasfilm as “The Goonies In Star Wars,” and it was explained that, although the series features four children, “it is not a show for children.”

The official synopsis for the series reads: “When four teenagers make a mysterious discovery on their seemingly safe home planet, they become lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. Finding their way home, encountering unlikely allies and enemies, will be an adventure bigger than they ever imagined.”

Judas Law stars of the series and join him Ravi Cabot Conyers, Kyriana Kratter, Robert Timothy SmithAND Ryan Kiera Armstrong.

The episodes of the show will be directed by Bryce Dallas Howard, The Daniels, Davide Abbassa, Jake SchreierAND by Lee Isaac Chung. The MandalorianS Mr. Jon Favreau AND Dave Filoni will be executive producer.
