As launch date approaches, EW give us a look at the captain of the Halcyon, the vessel where you’ll take your journey’s on Galactic Starcruiser. Her name is Captain Keevan, and her working history has seen her involved in a number of key galactic events.
“This is not a hotel,” stresses Imagineering executive Scott Trowbridge, clarifying that the two-night interstellar affair (opening March 3 — at nearly $5,000 a stay — just outside Disney’s Hollywood Studios park) is “part video game, live-action role-play, immersive theater, and luxury experience all rolled into one.”
Unlike a traditional hotel where weary parkgoers retire to relax and sleep, Trowbridge says Starcruiser is a place to “live a Star Wars adventure” alongside characters and locales lifted from the beloved franchise’s movies, books, comics, video games, and TV shows — with some new faces in the mix, including ship leader Captain Keevan.
“We’ll learn a lot more about her and her role in some pretty iconic moments in Star Wars history,” he teases, adding that she runs the ship with “capability and professionalism second to none.” But, just like the experience around her, “there may be more to her than meets the eye.”
