Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy is a four-part miniseries based on the Lego Star Wars franchise, released on September 13, 2024, on Disney+, written and executive produced by Dan Hernandez and Benji Samit, with Chris Buckley serving as director. The series follows Sig Greebling, who accidentally activates a powerful Jedi relic that rewrites reality, forcing him to restore things to normal.[1]
After finding an ancient relic that can rewrite reality at will, a young nerf-herder named Sig Greebling seeks out the solution to the changes with the help of an elusive Jedi long forgotten.[2]
On May 6, 2024, two days after Star Wars Day, a miniseries based on the LEGO Star Wars brand was announced. 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. 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 miniseries 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]
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. 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.
During the D23 fan event on August 9, 2024, it was announced that Anthony Daniels, Kelly Marie Tran, and Billy Dee Williams would be reprising their roles as C-3PO, Rose Tico, and Lando Calrissian, as well with Naomi Ackie returning as Jannah from (2019).[5]
Animation is provided by Atomic Cartoons in Vancouver, British Columbia.[6]
A teaser trailer was released on YouTube on May 6, 2024. Several tie-in LEGO sets were then launched in August 2024.[7] The official trailer debuted that same month during D23.[5]
The series was released on Disney+ on September 13, 2024. The miniseries is also set to be released on the Star Wars Kids YouTube channel, on December 5 for a limited time.[8]
On Rotten Tomatoes it has a rating of 100% based on reviews from 8 critics.[9]
