LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation Gets New Poster and Clip
The final week of July might be upon us, but summer isn't over just yet, which an all-new poster and clip from LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation are happy to remind us of. In the years since Disney purchased Lucasfilm, most fans of the franchise have associated the colder months with the franchise, though the initial six films were released heading into the summer, resulting in a strong connection between the warm weather and the galaxy far, far away. With the release of LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation, longtime fans will surely look fondly on the embrace of summer activities with the franchise's beloved characters. Check out the new LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation poster and clip below before it hits Disney+ on August 5th.
LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation, which is set shortly after the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, features the voices of "Weird Al" Yankovic, Yvette Nicole Brown, Kelly Marie Tran, Anthony Daniels, Billy Dee Williams, and returning cast members from previous LEGO Star Wars specials, and includes the new original song "Scarif Beach Party" performed by "Weird Al" Yankovic.
Looking for a much-needed break from stormtroopers and TIE fighters, Finn arranges a surprise vacation for his friends Rey, Poe, Rose, Chewie, BB-8, R2-D2, and C-3PO, aboard the ultra-luxurious Galactic Starcruiser, the Halcyon. But Finn's plan to have one last hurrah together quickly goes awry when he's separated from the group. While searching for his friends, he encounters three Force ghosts: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Leia Organa, who each share their own unexpected stories of vacations gone wrong, helping him to understand that holidays are about more than just having fun.
