“Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” has blasted off.
The first two episodes of the latest live-action Lucasfilm series are now streaming on Disney+, and within those two episodes, there are some surprising connections to some beloved Disney theme park attractions.
In “Skeleton Crew,” we follow a group of youngsters – Ravi Cabot-Conyers as Wim, Ryan Kiera Armstrong as Fern, Kyriana Kratter as KB and Robert Timothy Smith as adorable alien Neel – as they discover a hidden spaceship and take off for parts unknown. They encounter a crusty old droid SM-33 (voiced by Nick Frost) and a rascally Force-user (Jude Law) as they attempt to get back home and uncover the hidden mystery of their suburban planet.
