Star Wars: Skeleton Crew

Willow himself, Warwick Davis (equally famous in these parts for playing Wicket the Ewok as well as several other characters in the Star Wars galaxy), later joined the pair to a standing ovation. "The beauty of this show is that there's no way they'll kill me," joked the actor. (Cue the maniacal puppet laughter!) Here is all the big news and moments that came out the panel. It's really been incredible, so thank you."

The show from the creators of 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' was previously codenamed 'Grammar Rodeo.'
