Skeleton Crew Kids Watched Movies to Prepare for Roles (but Not Star Wars)

by

The upcoming series titled “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” follows the storyline after “Star Wars: The Acolyte“. Unlike other Star Wars productions, this one explores the everyday life of children in the Star Wars universe. Although child characters have been a part of the franchise for some time, particularly with the growth of Han and Leia’s children in the old Legends canon, “Skeleton Crew” uniquely centers around a group of suburban kids. In a recent conversation with ComicBook, the young cast members – Ravi Conyer, Kyriana Kratter, Robert T. Smith, and Ryan K. Armstrong – shared the movies they watched to prepare for their roles: “Goonies“, “E.T.“, and “Stand by Me“, but not any Star Wars films.
