Get ready to explore the Star Wars universe from a new perspective. 

The Star Wars television series on Disney+ have had a varied response over the past few years. There have been hits like The Mandalorian and Andor, alongside less well-received shows such as The Acolyte.

Now, the latest show is nearly upon us and Disney+ have just jumped its premiere up a day. Star Wars: Skeleton Crew debuts with a double-episode on Monday December 2nd at 6pm ET in the US.

For ardent UK fans, this translates to Tuesday, December 3, at 2am GMT. The show the settles into a regular weekly pattern, with instalments dropping on Wednesdays at 2am GMT.

Of course, a new date demands a new poster, this time focussing on the adult cast led by Jude Law.
