Skeleton Crew lie ahead. After several thrilling weeks of storytelling, Star Wars: Skeleton Crew’s season came to a close on the 2025 TV schedule, and the finale was as explosive as it was cathartic.

Skeleton Crew creators Jon Watts and Christopher Ford have explained their decision to not include a cliffhanger in the show’s finale. Following the premiere of the last episode, “The Real Good Guys,” the duo sat down with Collider to discuss the series.

In its final episode, Skeleton Crew sticks the landing with lots of action and some genuinely tense moments, but its answers are limited.

I’m still a Star Wars fan, so I’m looking forward to Andor Season 2 and the next Daisy Ridley Star Wars movie. I'll watch The Mandalorian & Grogu when its release date arrives next year. I just hope that at least some of these projects aren't simply chapter in the same story that we've been watching for nearly 50 years.

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew wore its influences on its sleeve. Despite being part The Goonies, part Treasure Island, and coated in a sweet, science-fantasy shell, Skeleton Crew ’s best homage was not to existing Star Wars characters or stories, but to the joy of discovering the larger world of George Lucas’ galaxy through another person’s eyes.

Skeleton Crew' creators Jon Watts and Christopher Ford go inside that action-packed finale and address the murky future of the show.

The latest show out of the Lucasfilm galaxy is Star Wars: Skeleton Crew. The family adventure harkens back to the nostalgia of 80s classics like The Goonies and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. After eight action-packed episodes, Skeleton Crew ended this week with an explosive finale.

Skeleton Crew’s charming, family-friendly space adventure could have been a nice refresh for the beleaguered franchise.

If Skeleton Crew left you craving more boundary-pushing Star Wars stories, these adventures will take you deeper into the galaxy's most exciting tales. The post Essential Star Wars Tales For ‘Skeleton Crew’ Fans appeared first on But Why Tho?
