The live-action Star Wars series co-created by Jon Watts (Spider-Man: No Way Home) and Chris Ford (Spider-Man: Homecoming) is rooted in kid-centric coming-of-age tales like The Goonies and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, as well as the LucasArts game Monkey Island and Lucasfilm’s own Indiana Jones franchise. As the children make their way through the galaxy, they’ll encounter strange new worlds and space pirates โ€” including Vane (Marti Matulis), formerly of Gorian Shard’s gang on The Mandalorian, Brutus (Fred Tatasciore) and Gunter (Jaleel White).
