Star Wars fans finally have a first look at the main cast of Skeleton Crew, the upcoming Disney+ series starring Jude Law.
The reveal doesn’t come through an official trailer or poster from Disney, however, but instead through an early piece of merchandise that reveals the four children at the heart of the Goonies-inspired show.
Available through Fanatik, the Skeleton Crew Official Ingot features an engraving of the group, but its box provides a proper look at their live-action characters. Only three of the four appear human, as the fourth is an elephant-looking alien not unlike Max Rebo from Star Wars: Episode 6 – Return of the Jedi.
Disney has been unusually quiet about Skeleton Crew since its announcement in May 2022, despite the show wrapping filming in January 2023. Some fans were given an incredibly brief preview at Star Wars Celebration 2023, but this merchandise reveal is the first time the majority of the fandom have seen the characters.
“An epic tale of friendship and determination awaits,” reads the official blurb of the ingot, though it doesn’t offer any more details about the show itself. The engraving features what appears to be a droid character too, but it’s impossible to garner anything more (and the Star Wars Celebration 2023 preview already showed Law’s character as human).
Disney may reveal more about Skeleton Crew and its release window upon completion of The Acolyte, the upcoming High Republic set show debuting June 4, 2024, but fans will otherwise just have to wait patiently for an official announcement (or more leaks) to hear more.
