Join Richard and Sarah behind the scenes of opening day, where we interviewed an Imagineer, specialty chefs, the merchandise team, and Star Wars: The High Republic authors. We learned about the new nighttime projection show “Shadows of Memory: A Skywalker Story” and saw Luke Skywalker walk amongst us muggles on Batuu. Most importantly, we shared the experience with all of our friends, which is what Disneyland is all about. Oh, and someone was the Rebel Spy. Can you guess who??

Today in Star Wars History 4/1/1983

 

Let’s wish a big happy birthday to Matt Lanter who was born on 4/1/1983 - 42 years ago. We all know Matt Lanter’s work as the voice of Anakin Skywalker in The Clone Wars and Tales of the Jedi. He also cameoed as Republic officer, Lant Davan, in The Mandalorian episode “Chapter 6 - The Prisoner.” A role we thought (and hoped) would be a recurring character.
