The new Disney+ series 'Star Wars: Skeleton Crew' has an excellent cast of child actors and offers the unusual promise of different coming-of-age tales.
The leads of the production, which premiered this week, are a fairly typical bunch for your average coming-of-age adventure story. Led by a plucky protagonist who seeks adventure along a comic relief best friend, a rebellious girl who the lead is sure to fall in love with, and a tech-savvy partner, who stumbles upon a mystery that leads them across the galaxy, 'Skeleton Crew' follows the archetypes of the genre almost to a tee.
