Cal Kestis Makes Animated Debut
Since Cal Kestis made his debut in 2019’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and the game’s 2023 sequel, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, fans have wondered whether the character will make the leap to live-action. While that question remains unanswered, Cameron Monaghan will reprise his role in an unexpected way.
This marks Cal’s first expansion beyond the successful Jedi video game series, bridging the gap between gaming and television in the Star Wars universe.
Star-Studded Voice Cast Returns
Monaghan will be joined by a very large voice cast that includes original trilogy actors Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, and Billy Dee Williams returning to their roles as Luke Skywalker, C-3PO, and Lando Calrissian respectively.
The series features interesting character reimaginings – notably, Lando serves as the Mandalorian in this alternate universe, showcasing the creative freedom of the LEGO format.
New Characters and Villains
The show introduces Jaxxon, voiced by Sonic the Hedgehog actor Ben Schwartz. Jaxxon – a Lepi who resembles a green humanoid bunny – was introduced during Marvel’s original Star Wars comic book series in the late ’70s, bringing classic Expanded Universe elements to modern audiences.
Dan Stevens voices new villain Solitus, who has plans to “unmake” the galaxy and possesses the power to achieve this devastating goal.
Release Details and Future Plans
LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy – Pieces of the Past will run for four episodes, all debuting on Disney+ on September 19. The first season featured mash-ups of different Star Wars eras with several drastic timeline changes.
As for Cal Kestis beyond this animated appearance, he’s slated to return for the third and final Star Wars Jedi game, with EA confirming that Respawn Entertainment will develop Star Wars Jedi 3.
This LEGO series appearance bridges Cal’s gaming origins with broader Star Wars media, potentially setting the stage for future live-action appearances.
