The Star Wars Holiday Special lives again, but this time, in Lego form.
Variety reports Anthony Daniels (C-3PO), Kelly Marie Tran (Rose Tico), and Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian), as wall as
The Clone Wars voice actors Dee Bradley Baker (clone troopers), Tom Kane (Yoda, Qui-Gon Jinn), Matt Lanter (Anakin Skywalker), and James Arnold Taylor (Obi-Wan Kenobi), will return to their roles for a LEGO Star Wars style holiday special premiering on Disney+ on Nov. 17th.
“The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special” sees Rey, Finn, Poe, Chewie, Rose and the droids as they celebrate Life Day, a joyous celebration on Chewie’s home planet of Kashyyyk that was first introduced in the 1978 “Star Wars Holiday Special.” Set after the events of 2019’s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker,” the new 45-minute special follows Rey as she journeys with BB-8 to gain a deeper understanding of the Force. Along the way, she encounters characters from all nine Skywalker saga films, including Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Yoda and Obi-Wan. It’s unclear if Daisy Ridley (Rey), John Boyega (Finn), Oscar Isaac (Poe) or Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) are returning.
Ken Cunningham directed “The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special,” which was written by David Shayne. Shayne also served as executive producer, along with James Waugh, Josh Rimes, Jason Cosler, Jacqui Lopez, Jill Wilfert and Keith Malone.
