Disney+ viewers should keep an eye out for hidden character in new series
Nick Frost has been capturing the hearts of Star Wars fans with his outstanding performance in the latest series, Skeleton Crew, now streaming on Disney+. Fans and critics alike have been raving about the first two episodes, praising Frost’s role in the show. Known for his work in Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead, Frost lends his voice to droid SM-33, a character who joins a group of children on a mission to find their way home on an old spacecraft.
Viewers have been quick to notice an Easter egg in Frost’s character’s name, with SM-33’s pirate-like demeanor reminding fans of Smee, Captain Hook’s loyal boatswain from Peter Pan. This attention to detail has added an extra layer of excitement to Frost’s portrayal, with many fans eager to see what surprises the show has in store.
Writer and director Jon Favreau, famous for his work on The Mandalorian, has also hinted at the potential for Frost to make live-action appearances as other characters in Skeleton Crew, adding another element of intrigue for fans to look out for. Frost himself has expressed his enthusiasm for future projects within the Star Wars universe, indicating his willingness to explore new roles and potentially even make appearances in other series set in the same timeframe as Skeleton Crew.
With fans eagerly anticipating each new episode, the buzz around Nick Frost’s performance in Skeleton Crew shows no signs of slowing down. Be sure to catch all the action on Disney+ as new episodes are released every Wednesday.
