We’ve officially returned to a galaxy far, far away, as the third episode of Star Wars series Skeleton Crew has landed onDisneyPlus, plummeting the spin-off show into full swing. The space-set saga’s latest chapter follows a group of youngsters as they set off on a Goonies-style adventure across the cosmos after discovering something incredible on their home planet.
Along the way, they run into mysterious Force user Jod Na Nawood, played by Jude Law as the likes of Ravi Cabot-Conyers (as Wim), Ryan Kiera Armstrong (as Fern), Kyriana Kratter (as KB), and Robert Timothy Smith (as Neel) round out the cast.
As with allDisney Plusshows, the new Star Wars series didn’t drop all at once, and will instead be releasing weekly – and this is where it gets a bit complicated… While the streamer used to release its new shows at a set time, the latest few releases have shifted around a bit. So, if you’re a little bit confused about when and how you’ll be able to stream Skeleton Crew, you’re in the right place. Below we take you through all the details, from release time to how many episodes there are.
