More than 40 years after the original, Star Wars is getting a new Holiday Special on Disney+. But there’s a twist. Fans hoping for live-action Wookiee shenanigans will instead get a new adventure in Lego animation.
As revealed by USA Today, the 45-minute Lego Star Wars Holiday Special will reunite Rey, Finn, Poe, and other characters for a new Life Day celebration that nods to the original Holiday Special from 1978. It will also feature appearances from Kylo Ren, Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, and of course, Chewbacca himself. Executive producer Josh Rimes even teased that some of the actors from the movies will reprise their roles for the special.
