Collider Interviews | LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy's Tony Revolori, Gaten Matarazzo and Marsai Martin Interview @ColliderInterviews | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
A brand-new Star Wars series debuted on Disney+ today, and it has the potential to become one of the most unanimously liked Star Wars series because it's hard to dislike the adorable antics of LEGO figures. LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy is a four-episode miniseries, with a very open-ended finale, which sees the Star Wars galaxy flipped on its head as the good guys become the bad guys and the bad guys become the heroes.
Written by the creative duo Dan Hernandez and Benji Samit, Rebuild the Galaxy is a hero's tale for the lowly nerf-herder Sig Greebling (Gaten Matarazzo), who finds himself thrown head-first into an epic battle of good versus evil after he unearths the “cornerstone,” a powerful artifact hidden within a long-forgotten Jedi temple. Luckily, he isn't alone in his pursuit of saving the galaxy as Jedi Bob (Bobby Moynihan) becomes his (mostly) wise mentor and Yesi Scala (Marsai Martin) remains a stalwart friend and ally. Unfortunately, the only ally Sig doesn't have in his newfound galaxy is his brother, and fellow nerf-herder Dev (Tony Revolori), who has fallen to the dark side.
Ahead of the premiere, I caught up with Matarazzo, Revolori, and Martin to discuss LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy. During our hilarious and upbeat conversation, we spoke about what corners of the Star Wars galaxy they would want to rebuild; how joining Star Wars was a full-circle moment for Matarazzo; and whether or not the dark side really does have cookies. And yes, the bit is real. Two years ago, when I spoke with the creators of LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation, we joked about starting a petition for a Valentine's Day-themed film. You can read the full transcript of the conversation with Tony Revolori, Gaten Matarazzo, and Marsai Martin below or watch it in the player above.

![Matt Reeves Reveals When The Batman Sequel Starts Filming [Exclusive]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/45YjstZ9yk4/hqdefault.jpg "Matt Reeves Reveals When The Batman Sequel Starts Filming [Exclusive]
It’s been over two years since Matt Reeves breathed new life into DC’s cinematic universe with 2022’s The Batman. For his movie, Reeves cast Robert Pattinson (Good Time) as the caped crusader and really leaned into the darker side of not only the titular hero but also the city of Gotham. In return, Reeves was met with an overly positive response from fans and critics, who appreciated his gritty take on the world of Batman, which gave the characters plenty of depth and put much more on the line. From the movie’s early days of production, Reeves made it clear that he was paving the way for what would eventually become a trilogy of films. After James Gunn and Peter Safran took over DC Studios at the tail end of 2022, fans were worried that Reeves’s plans would be scrapped, but they were quickly assured this wouldn’t be the case and that a sequel was still on the way.
Now, thanks to a conversation between Collider’s Steve Weintraub and Reeves, we have a better idea of where the filmmaker and his co-scribe, Mattson Tomlin, are with the project.
“We are finishing up, Mattson and I are at it every day. We’re getting very close. We’ve given big portions of it to DC already and they’ve read it. They’re super excited, and we’re trying to get — we want to be able to gear up early next year and shoot the movie next year. We’re excited about it. We’re getting close. It’s very exciting.”
All of this sounds super promising for those who have been waiting patiently to uncover the next chapter in The Batman saga, with Reeves adding that cameras will pick up “sometime in the first half of next year.” In addition to the filming updates, the director also cemented the movie’s title. Confirming the short but to-the-point name, Reeves said, “Yeah. It’s called The Batman Part II.
