The cast and crew of Star Wars: Skeleton Crew celebrate the world premiere at Disneyland.
After its debut on Disney Plus this week, Skeleton Crew has become a favorite of Star Wars fans. It has become rare to see any Star Wars project received so warmly, but Jon Watts and Christopher Ford have successfully captured lightning in a bottle and delivered a genuine crowd-pleaser. A few days after the season premiere, Lucasfilm dropped the first footage from the World Premiere at Disneyland. The stars were out in Force as they descended on the red carpet to celebrate the big release, and the mood was festive. Dust off your Sunday best, and check out the video below.
REVIEWS
We loved the opening episodes of this new series. In his FOUR STAR review, Thomas Storai said: “Skeleton Crew is a series that puts the fun back into Star Wars. It brings a refreshing perspective, expanding this universe in exciting new ways. This series has compelling characters and Jude Law fits just right in. At its heart, it’s a love letter to children’s adventure films from the ’80s.”
In my FOUR STAR review, I said: “I had a blast with Skeleton Crew. Jon Watts has crafted a fun, adventurous love letter to the kid-centric Amblin movies of yesteryear and expanded the sandbox of the galaxy far, far away without treading on the toes of the established lore. But unlike other entries in the saga, this show isn’t reliant on anything we’ve seen or heard before. It truly stands on its own feet and proudly forges a new pathway into the lore of the franchise to deliver something new and fresh.”
