We’ve got the first details on Kylo Ren’s new ship from The Last Jedi
So if you are spoiler-phobic click ahead to this time stamp…NOW.
This week, on The Star Wars Show!
Andi talks with the cast and filmmakers of Star Wars: The Last Jedi!
We take a closer look at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
And much, much more.
Now from the Lucasfilm Headquarters it’s The Star Wars Show!
Hey I’m Andi Gutierrez, welcome to The Star Wars Show, the only Star Wars Show on the
internet that is nominated for a prime time Emmy award.
I’d celebrate with Anthony but he’s not here this week, which we’ll explain why
later on in the episode, but first!
Let’s go to the news!
Star Wars: The Last Jedi is only a few months away and with a new movie, comes a whole new
ship for Kylo Ren to take control of.
And wouldn’t you know it, we have the first images of it.
Also, SPOILER WARNING.
If you don’t want any more about this, this is your last chance to skip ahead.
We good?
Good.
Kylo’s new ship is called the TIE Silencer, whose full technical name is the Sienar Jaemus
TIE/VN Space Superiority Fighter.
The Silencer features laser cannons and a missile launcher, and looks an awful lot like
a darker, sharper edged TIE Interceptor.
And speaking of new Star Wars things, there was a TON of new Star Wars reveals last weekend
at the D23 Expo in Anaheim.
The cast of The Last Jedi debuted an INCREDIBLE behind the scenes reel showing off all the
new creatures, aliens, and locations from the new movie.
Also debuting new behind the scenes action was Battlefront II, which showed off a new
trailer giving fans a glimpse behind the scenes of the making of the new single player campaign.
But the big talk of the weekend was the newly unveiled Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, the brand
new Star Wars themed land coming to Disneyland and Walt Disney World in 2019.
Aside from the unveiling of the model, we also got a few more details on the 2 Star
Wars themed rides coming to the park.
One lets you actually pilot the Millennium Falcon, where apparently all of your moves
will have consequences that follow you throughout the park, as well as ride that puts you inside
a Star Destroyer hangar bay plopping you in the middle of a battle between the First Order
and the Resistance.
And for those of you visiting Galaxy’s Edge in Florida in the months after it’s opened,
you can have the option to stay in a fully immersive Star Wars themed hotel filled with
the aliens, droids, and creatures you’d find in a galaxy far far away.
Plus!
Every window has a view into space.
And we’ll have a ton more from D23 later in the show.
As we mentioned earlier THE STAR WARS SHOW WAS NOMINATED FOR A PRIME TIME EMMY THIS WEEK
FOR OUTSTANDING SHORT FORM VARIETY SERIES!
But we’re not the only Star Wars Show nominated this week, Star Wars Rebels also picked up
it's much deserved first Emmy nomination for Outstanding Children’s Program.
Congratulations to all of the nominees and their hard working crews who made this possible.
Looking at you Frank, Kyle and Dana!
Finally this week KEVIN THE EWOK!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!
(Ewok sounds) WHAT?!
EWOKS ARE COMING TO STAR WARS GALAXY OF HEROES?!
(More Ewok noises) WOW!
Anyone Else?
(Ewok Noises) That’s amazing Kevin.
Are you in the game too?
(SAD EWOK NOISE) Is it because you’re not Canon?
Aww bummer.
Wait, you have a trailer?
Can you show it to us?! Roll it.
You are watching The Star Wars Show.
Guys I am so bummed that I can’t be there this week with all this insane news coming
out of D23 but it is all for a good cause.
I’m in LA right now shooting our new show: Science and Star Wars which is going to come
out this Fall.
It’s going to be absolutely amazing.
We’ve got huge experiments and huge guests and I’m having such a wonderful time and
I will be back next week and in the meantime Andi, I need you to kick down all the doors
and crack all the skulls in the office till you find out who this perfect boy is for me.
Find out for me Andi.
I love him.
I think he’s heading for that small moon.
That’s no moon.
You know what, I’ve got cards for you but whatever
Let’s just riff it.
We’re friends.
I love your dress it’s amazing.
Thank you!
I love yours!
We’re both very Star Wars-is.
Yeah you know a little bit of Star Wars fashion.
Having fun?
I’m, gee having a lot of fun.
Star Wars is lahhh!
So where can I get a lobster sweater like that?
That lobster sweater I’m going to hold on to tight, I’m gonna not let that go.
Or I’ll Ebay it and we’ll pay for the effects budget.
So how’s Phasma different this time around?
What I can tell you, is that Phasma is in the film.
Now has it been easier this time around?
What has changed coming into The Last Jedi?
I’ve found nothing easier.
And I still felt like oh my God I shouldn’t be here.
What’s going on this is so weird.
After 40 years of Luke Skywalker be you, do you know him intimately yet?
Well I thought I did, but I like the unexpected.
This film is really unique and that’s all due to Rian Johnson.
We see Finn in a Rebel pilot outfit, where’s he at right now?
I think Finn just came across some wardrobe.
He’s a bit of a jacket stealer.
Yeah he is, Finn is a big jacket stealer.
And big spoiler alert, she gets out of that trash compactor.
So Canto Bight.
What’s it like showing that different side of society?
It was a really interesting journey kind of finding the look of that place.
I’ve never been on a set that opulent in my life.
They would have all the creatures in like a dramatic situation with all the puppeteers
working them and so they would have the casino set up and all the creatures working the table
and playing bets That’s gotta be so cool.
And I would just walk through it and experience it as a living environment.
With all those creatures in there, did you get Millie a cameo or anything?
I flat out asked, are there dogs in the Star Wars universe?
And the answer was NO.
We’ve got everything else, you think they could fit in a dog.
So this time around it seems that Rey is a lot more of a physical role.
It’s funny what people take from seeing something but also like I watched that was
thinking that oh my God they give away so much.
And everyone has been “so physical?” and I’m like oh yeah I guess it is!
So between the Force Awakens to now, would you say there is more or less running at full
speed in this one?
There’s way more.
I thought there was going to be way less.
After 7 I thought I’d be in a floating chair just saying, “Rey, go get Luke.”
But I’d be sleeping off everything really.
So more of like a sleeping syndrome thing.
Where’s your John Boyega sweatshirt?
I know!!
It’s not here.
I actually have a SPOILER, I have a Rian Johnson t-shirt that I was going to wear today and
I forgot it.
Does she have a bit of a score to settle with Finn?
Do you want to ask me something else like who my suit’s by, or do I like having longer
hair because I would start having a better chance of answering those questions than anything
you are wonderfully presenting to me right now.
Hey guys I’m on the floor of the D23 Expo right now standing in front of Walt Disney Parks
and Resorts: Galaxy of Stories.
Let’s go check it out.
Now Rex here is someone we all know and love from the history of Star Wars so that’s
exciting.
And he has a new job.
We might head over to the Cantina and we might find a little droid DJing in the background
there.
What we love, is the opportunity opt share with everyone what we have been working on
the past 2 years.
You are the adventure.
You are the rogue explorer going off to the edge of wild space and crafting your own adventure.
It gives us an opportunity to experience Star Wars in all new ways.
The food, the drink, the smells, what it feels like to walk down that street.
That’s what makes Star Wars, Star Wars.
You’re walking down a path or alley or street and droids going by, you might see an Ithorian
or a couple X-Wings hidden over there in the forest.
The Resistance has a history for some reason of hiding out in old ancient ruins.
And one thing I’ve noticed walking around here is that the First Order presence is pretty
strong.
Whenever you have the First Order and the Resistance nearby, something is bound to happen.
But this time, we’re going to be right in the middle of it..
If you look deep in to the village, the heart of our hangar bays, there’s a ship that
is very very familiar.
The Millennium Falcon.
That is really a life long dream to be able to climb aboard that cockpit, sit down and
take the controls of the Falcon and fly across the galaxy?
We’re gonna let you do it.
This model itself is massive.
How big is the area going to be?
We’re 14 acres so it’s the largest land expansion in the history of our company.
It’s Star Wars, it’s gotta be big!
Go big or go home.
You can’t do things small in Star Wars.
Last week we asked you to tell us where you thought CH33Z was hiding for 4 months.
And a lot of you had some pretty clever theories.
Dead Eyed Clown said Cheese was roaming the halls declaring independence and letting us
know that he’s Nacho Cheeze now!
Odd Person XD added his own Cheeze/Snoke theory.
WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE TRUE.
But the biggest theory was that he was off filming another cameo ala Chopper in Rogue
One…which we can now officially confirm is NOT TRUE.
The real story is, well less dramatic than that.
Watch.
Oh I’ll leave this for safe keeping no one ever comes in here.
Ahhh been looking for this.
Well that was super anticlimactic.
And that’s our show for the week, thanks for watching, and as always, May the Force
be with you!
Kyle, gotta keep the area neater.
We’ll lose him again.
