Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney Parks, Hollywood Studios

“Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge – Last Call” is a virtual reality game coming to Oculus Quest on September 15, and a trailer is now available. The game is a sequel to last year’s “Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge,” which saw the return of Frank Oz as Yoda.

“In need of assistance, Dok-Ondar (Cory Rouse) hires you to recover an ancient artifact. Navigating new environments like Sardeevem Chasm and the Cavern of the Moons, watch out for pirates and new threats, solving puzzles, and using your droid repair tech tools to get yourself out of tight situations,” reads the official description for the upcoming game.

Based on the lands at both Disneyland and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, the games let you continue your Black Spire Outpost adventure long after you’ve returned from Batuu.

Daughter of Carrie Fisher Visits Disneyland

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney Parks

It’s hard to believe it has been almost 5 years since the Princess of Star Wars has passed away. Carrie Fisher will forever be a Star Wars legend for her role as Princess Leia. Her daughter, Billie Lourd, recently visited Disneyland. She rode the popular Star Wars: Rise of Resistance attraction and honored her Mom with a special headband.

As reported by People: “Billie Lourd channeled her late mother Carrie Fisher during a recent day at Disneyland. The actress, 28, shared footage on Friday from a trip to the Anaheim park with friends. She spent time at Galaxy’s Edge and riding Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, while also giving a nod to Fisher and her character in the sci-fi franchise by donning Princess Leia mouse ears for the outing. Lourd called the Star Wars attraction the “best ride ever,” but followed up by adding that Soarin’ is “a close second.”

Billie looks like she’s having a blast! The Princess Leia Ear Headband by Ashley Eckstein were limited release ears that cost close to $80.

Billie Lourd followed in her mother’s steps and became an actress herself. She’s starred in Scream Queens (2015–2016) and American Horror Story (2017–present). She’s also made Star Wars appearances as Lieutenant Connix in the Star Wars sequel trilogy (2015–2019). It sounds like she spent the perfect day at Disneyland, while honoring her mother, a Star Wars legend.

Gina Carano Teases A Star Wars Return

Posted on by Mathew Corn Uncategorized

Gina Carano had a quick split with her Star Wars career following some social media controversy last year.  Now however we are wondering if things are being smoothed over and we could possibly see her return.

In a recent Twitter post, Carano posts a picture that gives off a very strong Star War vibe. The photo depicts a shrouded figure – possibly Carano herself – standing on a very Tatooine-alike landscape watching not a binary but a trinary sunset. Further adding to the intrigue, the actress shared the pic without a comment.

We have seen Carano in a Disney+ series as she was in Running Wild with Bear Grylls even though they tried to bury the season.  We still have a long ways to go before we get back to seeing her on The Mandalorian.

It isn’t clear if this photo is a teaser for a Star Wars like project she is working on or not.  As season three of The Mandalorian seems to be a while down the road, it might be a while before we know exactly what this photo means.

Could Daisy Ridley be returning to a galaxy far, far away? A new rumor suggests that Rey’s story isn’t over just yet.

According to pop culture website Giant Freakin Robot, Ridley is reportedly in talks to reprise the character which appeared in the Star Wars sequel trilogy from 2015 to 2019. It’s not clear as to what project this may be, whether it’s a new film or one of the many upcoming Disney+ series set in the Star Wars universe.

Ridley’s last appearance as Rey was in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, which earned over a billion dollars at the box office in its original theatrical run. Rey can also be seen in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Disneyland and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, though her scene is currently being skipped at the Disneyland version of the attraction as part of the park’s COVID-19 safety measures.

Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Will Include “Signature Services” White Glove Concierge

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney Resorts

Walt Disney World is currently casting internally for “signature services” Cast Members for the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel.

The position is casting out of the Disney Reservation Center. These “white glove service” Cast Members would help ensure guests have everything they need for the perfect vacation (which will be important give the cost to stay at this luxury experience). The service can help with anything from tickets and dining reservations, to recreation and more, perhaps offering what typical guests may not have access to booking.

Earlier this month, Disney began casting actors, stunt performers, and musicians for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser. The hotel will offer a two-day, two-night immersive experience in which guests participate in their own “story” within the Star Wars universe and visit Batuu at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
