Disney+ has released the official trailer for Skeleton Crew, the upcoming Star Wars series starring Jude Law as a mysterious character named Jod. Jon Watts (Spider-Man: No Way Home) is the co-creator/co-showrunner of the series that follows four kids on a space adventure (imagine Goonies in space).
One thing that stood out was the kids using Old Republic credits. Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy has mentioned before that they are developing something set in the Old Republic, but that was years ago. This era was set thousands of years before the films, and one of the most popular games set during that time was Knights of the Old Republic. It featured wars between the Sith and Jedi, Mandalorian wars, and more.
