We're expecting a teaser for Lucasfilm's next Disney+ Star Wars series, Skeleton Crew, to be released during D23 this weekend, but for now, a display spotted on the event floor gives us a first look at the show's villainous pirate gang.

As you can see, Vane - The Pirate King Gorian Shard's Nikto right-hand man from season 3 of The Mandalorian - will lead this motley crew, and he'll be joined by a Shistavanen, a Gran and a formidable looking droid with a peg-leg.

The last time we saw Vane, he had abandoned Shard and fled after an aerial battle against Din Djarin and his allies. How his new crew of space scoundrels factors into this series remains to be seen, but it's assumed that they will be pursuing the kids for some reason.

Check out the images and video at the links below.

Jude Law stars as Jod Na Nawood, a mysterious drifter (there are rumors that he is a former Jedi who escaped the events of Order 66) who takes the young heroes under his protection.

"I had a wonderful time making this with everyone involved," Law saaid of working alongside his young cast mates in a recent interview. "Those four in particular who worked with me very closely were just great fun and incredibly professional, and I'm immensely proud to be a part of their crew."

In addition to Law, the titular crew will consist of Ravi Cabot-Conyers as Wim, Kyriana Kratter as KB, Robert Timothy Smith as Neel, and Ryan Kiera Armstrong as Fern. We also recently got word on a brand-new cast member, with Nic Frost (Spaced, Hot Fuzz) providing the voice of a droid named SM 33.

Have a look at some officially-released stills below.

"When four kids make a mysterious discovery on their seemingly safe home planet, they get lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy," according to the show's official synopsis. "Finding their way home, meeting unlikely allies and enemies will be a greater adventure than they ever imagined."

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew is set to premiere on Disney+ on December 3. Are you looking forward to the show? Let us know in the comment section.

Hopefully this series is good and doesn't take a Shistavanen.

That’s cool , a nice bit of connection to Mando…

Also the crew looks great aswell!!.

Since the show is borrowing inspiration from The Goonies , I can see them being akin the Fratelli crime family in that where they are the antagonists chasing after or trying to get to somewhere before the kids & Jude Laws character.

This isn't comic accurate - he's not a skeleton.

How many more childhoods need to be ruined?

Most of Disney Star Wars now has a small alien or tiny robot sidekick. Getting old seeing basically the same thing constantly repeated. 🤷‍♂️
