Star Wars: Skeleton Crew is premiering a day early

Today, Disney announced that rather than dropping on December 3rd, Star Wars: Skeleton Crew will premiere a day earlier on December 2nd with two episodes. Along with the announcement, Disney also posted a new trailer teasing how younglings Wim (Ravi Cabot-Conyers), Neel (Robert Timothy Smith), KB (Kyriana Kratter), and Fern (Ryan Kiera Armstrong) get swept up in the adventure of a lifetime with Jod Na Nawood (Jude Law) as their Force-sensitive guide.

Though some of the trailer’s big set pieces feel like classic Star Wars in terms of spectacle, it also emphasizes how Skeleton Crew really is a coming-of-age story about kids who grew up hearing stories about (and probably loving) the Jedi. It’s still not clear what Jod and his wards are up to as they run around screaming and running away from blaster fire. But it won’t be long yet until we all get a chance to find out for ourselves.
