- This week, we're getting a first look at Poe's X-wing
in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at Star Wars:
Galaxy's Edge.
Plus, we put together a reading list for your next visit
to Black Spire Outpost.
- This is "The Star Wars Show."
From the Lucasfilm headquarters in San Francisco,
here's your hosts, Andi and Anthony.
- Hello, and welcome to "The Star Wars Show," the only Star
Wars show on the internet that had to be hosted solo
because our other host is busy pursuing
legal action against a golden droid
for damaging our sweet boy chopper.
I told him it was a waste of time, but what do I know,
right?
Let's just get to the news.
Are you loving the exclusive first looks at Marvel's
"Age of Resistance" comics?
Well, we have two more for you.
Previews of both "Age of Resistance: Rey" and "Age
of Resistance: Rose Tico" are available on StarWars.com
right now.
Both stories are set before "The Last Jedi"
and will shine a new light on both characters.
Rey's one-shot shows never before seen moments between Rey
and General Leia Organa and follows
Rey, Chewbacca, and R2-D2 on their adventure
to find Luke Skywalker.
"Age of Resistance: Rose Tico" shows the close relationship
Rose shares with her sister Paige on their home
planet of Hays Minor until the First
Order tears their world apart.
Both will hit store shelves September 18th.
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is now open in both Disneyland Park
and Walt Disney World, but fans are still
eagerly awaiting the opening of Star Wars:
Rise of the Resistance.
The upcoming attraction opening on December 5th at Walt Disney
World and on January 17th, 2020, at Disneyland Park
will have guests join the Resistance
and depart from Batuu in a transport ship
to meet General Leia Organa at a secret rendezvous point
but instead get captured by the First Order
and brought onto a star destroyer
and placed right in the middle of a massive battle.

Rise of the Resistance.
And check it out for the first time, it's Poe's X-wing.
Full size, it is amazing, and you
can see it soon at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge live

I can't wait to see it in person.

- The shields are down.
- There's so much.
Carrie Fisher. I love you.
I know.
Luke, I'm your father.
Yoda.
When Yoda got crazy in the prequels and started flipping.
Because we had never seen Yoda move like that.
Yoda is a very old man.
And he kinda [IMITATES LIGHTSABER]
There's so much.
I loved Queen Amidala.
I loved her love story with Anakin.
I hated what happened to Anakin, how he got in that molten lava
and just disappeared before our eyes.
There's so much.
I love it so much.
I'm Yvette Nicole Brown, and you're
watching "The Star Wars Show."
I love it so much.

- I'm here at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Disney's
Hollywood Studios, which just opened recently,
and I'm gonna talk to a few of the authors that helped
expand the story of Batuu.
Let's go.
We're here at Dok-Ondar's shop with the creators of Star Wars:
Galaxy's Edge comic series, Ethan Sacks and Will Sliney.
We're gonna take a look at some of the props
that you guys actually helped tell the back stories for.
This little guy here shows up in the "Star
Wars: Galaxy's Edge" comic.
Can you tell me a little bit about that story?
- Sure.
I mean, I love the whole concept of the sarlacc.
Because Dok has all these cool relics,
we thought it'd be a cool story to tell how he came to have it.
And so, of course, Han Solo and Chewbacca before they joined
the Rebellion, they had to accept money
from various shady sources.
So one of the things we thought would be cool
is seeing Han Solo trying to wrangle one of these.
- One of my favorite things about being
a part of this series is getting to add a back story
to something like this.
When you read the comic, you learn so much more about what
this baby sarlacc can do.
Even though it's not what you see in "Episode VI,"
this thing is lethal.
So it was a lot of fun to draw, but it's even more fun
when you get into Dok-Ondar's then
and you get to see it in person.
- You actually got to work on a character
that I voice in the park.
I actually got to be the voice of Varg.
- No way.
- And you got to create what he looks like.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, very cool. - So he looks nothing like me.
- He's a little taller.
- Now we're here with Zoraida Cordova,
writer of "Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: A Crash of Fate."
Can you tell us a little bit about your story?
- I would love to.
"A Crash of Fate" is about two unlikely friends
who are on Black Spire Outpost.
They have 24 hours to deliver a very important parcel
or die trying and, of course, mayhem ensues.
- Mayhem always ensues in Star Wars.
- Yes.
- And we're here in front of the Trilon Wishing Tree,
and I know that has a special moment in your book.
- It does.
The Trilon Wishing Tree is very special to the people of Batuu.
It is a place where locals go and tie ribbons,
and they make wishes on it.
So Izzy and Jules, the characters in my book,
are making a wish and it means something very special to them
because it brings together their past and the possibility
of their future.
- Now I'm here with Delilah Dawson,
writer of "Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire."
Can you tell us a little bit about your book?
- "Black Spire" takes a character
that we brought to life for "Star Wars: Phasma,"
Vi Moradi, General Organa's best resistance spy.
She sends Vi to a remote location.
The First Order should never look for anyone here.
And it ends up being Black Spire Outpost
to build a Resistance encampment and to recruit some warm bodies
for the Resistance.
- I mean, if it wasn't for her, we
wouldn't even have a location to stand in front of you.
- We wouldn't.
You'll find out in "Black Spire" if you
read it, which you should because there's
so many Easter eggs.
You'll find out where Savi gets his lightsaber part.
You'll also find out where we got this tower because Vi is
responsible for sourcing this.
This is all Vi's handiwork.
- Thanks so much for joining me.
You can learn more about Star Wars:
Galaxy's Edge in those books and more
all available at bookstores right now.
- You're watching. - The Star.
- Wars. - Show.
- Looks like Matt had a lot of fun
at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge.
And I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little bit jealous.
But now that Black Spire Outpost has been bringing in visitors
for a while in both Disneyland and Walt Disney World,
we want to know what your favorite thing about visiting
is.
