LUCASFILM transported fans to a galaxy far, far away, highlighting three upcoming titles.

• Star Jude Law greeted fans in a pre-recorded message before introducing a special look at “Skeleton Crew,”a brand-new Star Wars series launching on Disney+ on Dec. 3, 2024, with the first two episodes.
• Representing Season Two of the critically acclaimed, Emmy®-nominated “Andor”droid B2 EMO rolled on stage to meet the D23 Brazil fans, who went wild. The Disney+ launch date—April 22, 2025—was revealed, and the crowd got a special look at the series. “Andor,” the acclaimed thriller, returns for its long-awaited conclusion. The 12 episodes of Season Two carry the story of Cassian Andor and the emerging rebel alliance over the climactic four years that lead to the discovery of The Death Star and the events of “Rogue One.” Season One followed Cassian’s reluctant journey from cynical nobody to revolutionary volunteer. “Andor” Season Two will see him transform from soldier to leader to hero on the way to his epic destiny. From the very first scene, Cassian’s story has activated an ever-widening ensemble of allies and enemies. Season Two will see these relationships intensify as the horizon of galactic war draws near. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound.
• In a pre-recorded video, director Jon Favreau and producer Dave Filoni introduced the audience to a special sneak peek of Lucasfilm’s “The Mandalorian and Grogu,”the upcoming Star Wars feature film that will open in theaters on May 22, 2026.
