Let’s Recap the Lucasfilm Studio Showcase from Today’s 2022 D23 Expo. Pretty active, if not a little uneventful Lucasfilm presentation today at D23 Expo. With no major earth-shattering announcements, we will have to be satisfied with the great stuff they did give us today.
Today at D23 Expo 2022, Disney’s official fan event — the first since 2019 — Lucasfilm revealed new looks at several of its next releases, along with premiere dates, never-before-seen images, and more. In a special showcase led by Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, fans were treated to sneak peeks at everything from Andor to the fifth installment of Indiana Jones, with appearances from cast and creators, as well as a few surprises. There’s a lot to look forward to; see below for a rundown of all the big reveals!
