The Star Wars Underworld Podcast

On this episode Ben is joined by Joel from Eye On Canon and Jesse from the Question/Possible Answer Podcast to discuss the latest Star Wars news, including some breaking updates from San Diego Comic Con! They start off by examining new comments from both John Boyega and Temuera Morrison and speculate about if the actors will return as their respective Star Wars characters. Furthermore they discuss a The Acolyte update, some non-news about the Lando show, and a couple of new quotes from Bob Iger and how they interface with the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. They also take time to explore all the exciting Star Wars reveals from SDCC, including costumes, props and concept art from Ahsoka, new Lego sets, upcoming panels, and more! Plus, what will the Star Wars galaxy look like 25,000 years in the past? We discuss that and so much more!

 
Special Note: This episode was recorded during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, all the Star Wars media being discussed here wouldn't exist. We stand in solidarity with all those currently on strike. We also strongly encourage our viewers to donate to the Entertainment Community Fund to help industry workers in need: https://ow.ly/uGrG50PhtSm
