Mando+ Panel: More Season 3 Details, Ahsoka Footage, Sabine Wren Casting Confirmed, and More! (SWCA 2022)

Posted on May 30, 2022May 30, 2022 by Head Butler Ryan

As was the case for the weekend, Mando+, a panel about The Mandalorian Season 3 and ended up including Ahsoka details and first footage, wasn’t screened to the public. In fact, there was a longer version of The Mandalorian S3 teaser from the opening day panel that invitees got to see, alongside the Ahsoka footage, but unfortunately we couldn’t even see the cast and crew together talking about their experiences. So thanks to some live tweets and reporting from those who were there, and some grainy Ahsoka footage I was able to see before it was taken down, let’s explore some of the reveals and details below. The Mandalorian returns February ’23 and Ahsoka sometime later that year. Continue reading “Mando+ Panel: More Season 3 Details, Ahsoka Footage, Sabine Wren Casting Confirmed, and More!

Jedi: Survivor Trailer, 2023 Release Revealed (SWCA 2022)

Posted on May 27, 2022 by Head Butler Ryan

The moody first teaser for the Jedi: Fallen Order sequel, Jedi: Survivor (confirmed back in January), is more confusing than revealing, but at least BD-1 is in it, so there’s that! Set 5 years after Fallen Order, Survivor promises to expand just about everything from the first, more dynamic planets, lean even heavier into the bond between Cal and BD-1, expand combat even more (please please please stealth options), and more. Ponder of what the teaser means, and check out some screenshots from it below, though at least we won’t have to wait much longer: Jedi: Survivor launches in 2023!

Out of all the panels they live-streamed on Day 1 of Star Wars Celebration Anaheim 2022, thankfully it included the nearly hour-long The High Republic panel, which saw the luminous authors, Michael Siglain, Kristina Arielle, and more on the stage together for the first time in a long time, peeling back all the layers on October’s Phase 2 start. There’s tons of new concept art, covers, and title reveals, as well as unique little details on just how much more Wild West 150 years prior to Phase 1’s start the galaxy really is. Strap in for all the covers and particulars below, ~~while you can watch the panel in the video above from the 2:24:17 mark (which is where it should start if you hit play, you’re welcome!), until the 3:40:42 mark~~ now the panel has it’s own video upload!

Lucasfilm Publishing Panel (SWCA 2022)

Posted on May 27, 2022June 6, 2022 by Head Butler Ryan

After a little fire alarm called the panel to a quick end, it resumed post-haste with the sly reveal of a Rey/Poe novel, details on the already announced Dark Horse comics, two The High Republic related announcements, the promise of secret projects from select authors, and an intriguing set of photos teasing what other stories are in the mix. Get all the details below, now! Continue reading “Lucasfilm Publishing Panel (SWCA 2022)” →

Lucasfilm Showcase Panel (SWCA 2022)

Posted on May 26, 2022May 26, 2022 by Head Butler Ryan

Since 2015’s Celebration Anaheim, there wasn’t quite been a weekend opening panel like the one with The Force Awakens’ trailer, and well, the Lucasfilm Showcase Panel for Anaheim 2022 wanted to say “hold my spotchka!” but it didn’t quite get there, due to focusing on non-Star Wars projects and by denying this panel to everyone at the convention minus those in the room, it could never quite permeate the weekend like SWCA ’15’s did even if it had a similar show-stopper. Let’s take a moment to address how disappointing, massively so, that they gate-kept this panel from those at home by choosing not to stream it (and the rest of the weekend’s opening panels), with only The Mandalorian’s S3 footage not being shown online anyways, screwing over international fans, fans who can’t come out due to health reasons, fans that can’t come due to COVID and wars, or even just monetary reasons…it’s an extremely inept choice in 2022, especially due to one short teaser, and I wish I could bet on Lucasfilm doing better but I don’t have much faith (like, let us at home pay to watch, even!). That out of the way, head below for the Andor trailer, Jude Law headlining 2023’s Skeleton Crew, and the non-Star Wars news, I guess! Continue reading “Lucasfilm Showcase Panel (SWCA 2022)” →

Star Wars Celebration Anaheim 2020 Cancelled, Returns 2022!

Posted on June 15, 2020June 15, 2020 by Head Butler Ryan

It’s completely unfortunate Star Wars Celebration Anaheim 2020 had to be cancelled, but with the pandemic still not under control, it’s the smart and only move. I’m sure we’ll get the convention’s potential reveals through either some type of digital event or the usual channels like the official site or This Week in Star Wars. Celebration will return to Anaheim in 2022, which will be after we’ve had several TV shows and heading into the next film, so I imagine it’ll be just as packed and as exciting as this year’s likely would’ve been. We’ll see the con’s exclusive merchandise online sometime this year, but head over to the official site for details on tickets transfers and more now!
