Production
On May 6th, 2024, two days after Star Wars Day, a mini-series based on the LEGO Star Wars brand was announced.[2] Rebuild the Galaxy depicts an alternate version of the Star Wars universe on opposite sides from all eras, with a relic founded by the main character, Sig Greebling, serving as a plot device.[2] The idea of having Jar Jar Binks being depicted as a Sith under the name "Darth Jar Jar", was inspired after several fan theories surrounding the character.[3]
The mini-series features the on-screen debut of Jedi Bob, a minifigure originating from the Attack of the Clones Republic Gunship set from 2002 where he was depicted as a then-unnamed Jedi character. He was later given the name "Bob" as an inside joke from the fandom in the LEGO Star Wars Visual Dictionary, published in 2009.[4]
Casting
Along with the release of the teaser trailer for the series, it was announced that both Ahmed Best and Mark Hamill would be reprising their roles as Jar Jar Binks and Luke Skywalker from the Skywalker Saga films.[1] Other cast members include Gaten Matarazzo and Tony Revolori as the Greebling brothers, Marsai Martin as Yesi Scala, Michael Cusack as Servo, and Bobby Moynihan, who had previously contributed voice work for the franchise, voices Jedi Bob.[2]
Marketing
A teaser trailer was released on YouTube on May 6, 2024.[2]
Release
The series is set to be released on Disney+ on September 13, 2024.[2]
