Disney has revealed a new more kid-friendly Star Wars show titled Lego Star Wars: All-Stars, bearing no small similarity to the video game series of the same theme.
The series will be produced for Disney’s online streaming service, DisneyNOW, as well on the DisneyXD. A number of shorts will premiere October 28, leading to full episodes later in November. While this normally wouldn’t be huge news, the name has been floating around the rumor mill for quite as a possible escalation for the Lego Star Wars game series. All-Stars brings together every Star Wars characters irrespective of timeline or canon or who’s alive and who’s not.
Check out the trailer below.
Even though the speculation that All-Stars is actually a game didn’t prove to be correct yet, it’s definitely possible that the shorts are a prelude to doing the same concept with a game. The series has been oddly quiet since the release of The Force Awakens, with Traveler’s Tales not announcing games for either Rogue One or The Last Jedi. Presumably they must have something big up their sleeves.
