During today's Star Wars Celebration panel looking ahead to Lucasfilm's big and small screen plans, it was confirmed that both Ahsoka and The Mandalorian will arrive on Disney+ in 2023. 

We had hoped that the latter might be here in time for the holidays, but with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Andor both on the way, perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that the wait for more Din Djarin and Grogu will be a little longer this time. A sizzle reel was shown to those in attendance at the event in Anaheim, California, but there are sadly no plans for it to be released online. 

However, we can tell you that it showed Din telling his loveable sidekick, "We’re going to Mandalore so that I can be forgiven for my transgressions." It was also announced that Katee Sackhoff will return as Bo-Katan Kryze, and the actor was on hand to make it clear that her character has unfinished business with Mando. 

February 2023 will no doubt be here before we know it, though there was no mention of a premiere month for Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson addressed fans in a brief pre-recorded video message). 

Spider-Man: No Way Home director Jon Watts hit the stage to confirm he's developing Star Wars: Skeleton Crew for Disney+. The big news is that Captain Marvel and Fantastic Beasts actor Jude Law will star in the show that's being developed by Watts and Christopher Ford alongside Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. 

Skeleton Crew is set around the same time as The Mandalorian and Ahsoka following the events of Return of the Jedi, and it was suggested that all of these shows will cross over in unexpected ways. As for the premise, it will follow four kids who end up getting lost in this Galaxy Far, Far Away, and while they're all set to be around 10-years-old, this won't be a kids' show.

Skeleton Crew may be fine. I imagine a group of orphans, five bags of bones, led by a Mad Corsair as they sail through a cold and dark sea full of planets, asteroids and many dangers... Also, unknown space monsters and other monsters we know.

So, Obi-Wan eh? Great start minus the chase scenes… but the Grand Inquisitor?

@PhoenixBlade - The inquisitors kind of…suck so far. And yea the chase scenes were rough

@GhostDog - Of the media I’ve consumed, the only Inquisitor I’ve thought was good was the Second Sister in Fallen Order. So I’ve kinda just expected it. They’re like street level drug dealers who go around acting like the shit and intimidating people, while the actual intimidating people don’t act like them. My main concern was what this means for Rebels.

No spoilers for Kenobi. I will say, it's mostly good. On a technical level I have to say, the direction is a bit odd in some places. The cinematography isn't great. They really didn't utilize the "Volume" StageCraft technology correctly in my opinion. Some of it looked exactly like they filmed it on a stage. Mando utilized it pretty well for the most part, and sometimes, not so much. Oddly enough, I just realized that this tech was used for The Batman recently. It turned out pretty great on film



It's too early to tell how the overall finished product of Kenobi will be, but 2 episodes in, I got a good feel for it. It's... just ok. Fine acting for the most part. The second episode leaves you wanting more for sure.

"Skeleton Crew" sounds a bit like the animated series "Star Trek Prodigy" to me.

@Mugens - Skeleton Crew kinda sounds like a working title to me. Feels like they have yet to settle on a real title

So Disney (Iger) admitted that they tried to make too many films and started to dilute the Star Wars product….

….2 years later….

….Let’s make too many Star Wars shows and dilute the product.

Skeleton Crew reminds me of those "group of kids" titles Kirby would always throw in with his other titles (when not working for Stan Lee) like Newsboy Legion, Boy Commandos, and The Forever People.

Hoping Skeleton Crew would be similar to Stranger Things.
