LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation Trailer Sets Disney+ Debut

Disney+ has unveiled an official trailer for LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation, Lucasfilm’s latest animated LEGO special following Star Wars Terrifying Tales and Star Wars Holiday Special. It will be available for streaming on Friday, August 5.

The video, which you can check out below, features Finn, Rey, Poe, Rose, and the rest of the gang as they go on a much-needed vacation following the intense events of The Rise of Skywalker. It also gives us a preview of the special’s theme song, titled “Scarif Beach Party,” which hails from Weird Al Yankovic.

LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation is an all-new animated special from Lucasfilm and the LEGO Group, and the newest entry in the popular signature branded cross-saga storytelling series. It takes place after the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

“Looking for a much-needed break from stormtroopers and TIE fighters, Finn arranges a surprise vacation for his friends Rey, Poe, Rose, Chewie, BB-8, R2-D2, and C-3PO, aboard the ultra-luxurious Galactic Starcruiser, the Halcyon,” reads the synopsis. “But Finn’s plan to have one last hurrah together quickly goes awry when he’s separated from the group. While searching for his friends, he encounters three Force ghosts: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Leia Organa, who each share their own unexpected stories of vacations gone wrong, helping him to understand that holidays are about more than just having fun.”
