The series, which is set in a time period similar to that of The Mandalorian and Ahsoka, is designed to be accessible to newcomers of the Star Wars universe. Watts emphasizes that no prior knowledge of Star Wars is necessary to enjoy the show.
“You don’t need to have any Star Wars background to enjoy it,” he said, “but if you do, you’ll be able to enjoy it on many more levels.”
Moreover, thanks to the accompanying mini-figures in the mentioned LEGO set, we know that the character played by Jude Law is named Jod.
