'Star Wars: Skeleton Crew' live-action series to come to Disney+ in 2023

The live-action Star Wars universe continues to expand on Disney+ with the upcoming Star Wars: Skeleton Crew series. It'll star Jude Law, and it tells a "coming-of-age tale" with "kids" also in the story. We don't know yet who they are, though. Jon Watts will direct the series alongside Chris Ford, who previously collaborated on Spider-Man: Homecoming. Star Wars: Skeleton Crew will be produced by Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. It's expected to come to the streaming service in 2023.

Every non-Battle Pass Star Wars Outfit that has been in the Item Shop will make a return. The Lightsabers will be back, and so will the E-11 Blaster Rifle. There will be new Star Wars Quests for those who want to go through Stormtrooper training. When you complete five of the quests, you'll earn an Empire Banner.

Respawn plans to release 3 more 'Star Wars' games

You can expect three more Star Wars games to come out of Respawn Entertainment. EA announced that the studio behind Titanfall and Apex Legends is working on a follow-up to its 2019 hit Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, but it isn't known if it'll be a direct sequel. A first-shooter game in the pipeline is overseen by a former Star Wars Battlefront producer. And then there's a strategy game produced by Respawn in the works with Bit Reactor leading its development. That new third-party studio is headed up by Greg Foertsch, who previously worked on the XCOM series.

EA's exclusive license to develop and publish Star Wars games will expire next year. And it looks like it wants to churn out as much as it can before that happens.
