Atomic Mass Games has developed a miniatures game called Star Wars: Shatterpoint, which allows players to create small teams of renowned Star Wars characters and engage in thrilling skirmishes on intricately designed battlefields. Unlike large-scale war games, Shatterpoint is all about swift, cinematic combat, with an emphasis on dynamic movement, verticality, and intense character duels that add a dramatic touch to the gameplay.

The standout features at this event include a miniature X-Wing from Luke Skywalker (used in “The Empire Strikes Back”) and Indiana Jones’ whip from “The Last Crusade”, with both items expected to be sold for over $200,000 each.

Some films, especially those like “Star Wars”, are watched only once, not to be revisited again afterward.

In the second season of the series “Andor,” Luna’s portrayal of Cassian was praised as one of the most outstanding in contemporary Star Wars narratives. Over 12 episodes, he skillfully guided Cassian’s evolution from a disheartened survivor to a budding rebel, using an intense and unspoken depth that didn’t rely on lightsaber fights or flashy special effects for impact. Luna’s subtle resistance, profound sorrow, and earned determination served as the pulse of the show, propelling “Andor” into the realm of prestigious television.

Billie Lourd is simultaneously advancing her acting career and paying tribute to the beloved Princess, as she did in her debut role in The Force Awakens, and continued with her part in the sequel trilogy’s cast, where she played Resistance officer Lieutenant Connix.

Initially, it appeared that he would be confined to his small corner of the galaxy, destined to spend his days solely as a bounty hunter. However, as Djarin crossed paths with individuals like Ahsoka Tano and Luke Skywalker, and took on a Force-sensitive child, his role in the Star Wars universe started to expand significantly.

Although Tech’s story seemingly concluded at that point on the Star Wars timeline, it doesn’t necessarily mean he won’t reappear again. In fact, Lucasfilm and their creative collaborators, particularly those in publishing, have been diligent in finding ways to incorporate Tech into additional tales since his demise. Here’s a brief overview of how that’s been unfolding if you haven’t caught up yet.

Whitaker’s nomination signifies a seldom-granted Television Academy honor in acting for Star Wars, even though it was limited to a guest role.
