“When four kids make a mysterious discovery on their seemingly safe home planet, they get lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy,” the show’s official synopsis reads. “Finding their way home, meeting unlikely allies and enemies will be a greater adventure than they ever imagined.”
Set after the events inReturn of the Jedi, Skeleton Crew has been compared to a coming-of-age story that resembles an Amblin Entertainment movie from the 1980s. While speaking withPeople, Law explained how the “joyful” series will spotlight the children, an exciting revelation in the universe.
“It is a fun place to be, the universe ofStar Wars,” Law said. “And there are great references to old films and recent episodes and series. There’s a lot of originality, and I hope that will bring the feeling of fun to those who watch it.”
Star Wars: Skeleton Crewis created by Jon Watts and Christopher Ford. Watts, the director ofTom Holland’s Spider-Man trilogy, told People the show will feature Easter eggs that pay homage to the original films. However, knowing these references is not a requirement to enjoySkeleton Crew.
“You don’t have to know everything aboutStar Warsto enjoy the show,” Watts added. “you may come into it completely fresh and enjoy the story. But if you do happen to be aStar Warssuper fan, there’s a lot for you.”
