> 'Skelton Crew' stars Jude Law and is from Jon Watts, the filmmaker behind Tom Holland’s recent trilogy of Spider-Man films. It centers on a group of kids lost in the galaxy, trying to find their way home. The series is executive produced by The Mandalorian masterminds Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. It is set in the New Republic era of Star Wars storytelling.

Isn’t Jude law a bit old to be playing a kid? /s

De-aging tech is constantly improving, it now removes 40 years and 3 feet from an actor.

So it's now the fourth (?) Star Wars show that's adults escorting lost kid/s back home?

If Ahsoka ends up being a follow-up to the whole Ezra thing, it could very well be the fifth. Sixth, if you count Boba Fett's baby Rancor and cadre of street-racing juvenile delinquents.

Plus at least one episode of Visions and Tales of the Jedi apiece, and about five minutes of flashbacks in Andor.

And I've done the math on the timeline, and I've got 50/50 odds that The Acolyte is gonna be about Baby Sheev Palpatine. Just you people wait.

Marvel and Star Wars seem to have a weird obsession lately with adults protecting kids it’s like every project I mean if quality is good I’m fine with it but it’s definitely a formula emerging within Disney

Lowery worked with Jude Law on the upcoming Peter Pan and Wendy movie, he's Hook. Disney+ having Lowery on their directors belt will probably end up being great for the service.

I hope it makes a 2023 release. Lots of interesting names involved in this project.
