It’s all about shining a spotlight on the incredible music scene here in Manchester – the up-and-coming artists, the ones everyone needs to know!

Batuu, the planet featured in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, was a new setting introduced into the Star Wars universe, taking place between the events of the more recent films.

The series has officially confirmed that Nick Cave and Warren Ellis will be composing the music. The pair previously collaborated on the scores for films like The Proposition and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.

Idris Elba recently spoke with Radio Times to discuss the upcoming season of Hijack. The popular actor, who will also star in the highly anticipated 2025 film A House of Dynamite, maintains a very busy schedule. He plans to direct two new films, Above the Below and This Is How It Goes, and will once again play DCI John Luther in another Netflix sequel. With so much on his plate, it’s no surprise he hasn’t shared much about his plans for the Apple TV series.
