The Acolyte is over for now, there’s a month until the return of Young Jedi Adventures but next on the television slate is the arrival of the long-awaited Skeleton Crew, starriing Jude Law and created by Spider-Man Trilogy helmer Jon Watts. While little is known about the show, we do know it takes inspiration from the classic Amblin movies of the 80’s and speaking with Games Radar director Lee Isaac Chung gave a bit more detail regarding what the show is about.
“I can’t wait for people to see this thing. It’s got a lot of Jon Watts in it, and anyone who’s a fan of what Jon Watts does – he’s very childlike in a beautiful way, in the way that he tells stories, and how he captures a childlike perspective in things. He brings that beautiful perspective to this story of young people in the Star Wars universe.
I felt like I hadn’t seen this. When I read all of the scripts, and when I was looking at the design of what he was designing – he asked if I would be on board. It was a no-brainer for me once I saw what he was working on. And then, also, working with him on that show, and with Jude and all the incredible actors who we have – it was a lot of fun. We were just having fun all the time. The kids were incredible and great.
What I hope is that it’s really going to touch families, and families are going to want to spend a lot of time with the show.”
We were fortunate enough to chat with Skeleton Crew star Marti Matulis not once but twice across the weekend at London Film and Comic Con, and you can listen to Paul Naylors chat with Marti below.
