Star Wars: Detours To Screen at Lucas Museum

George Lucas’s new museum will offer limited, in-person access to the long-shelved animated parody series as part of its opening film program.

Overview

  • Creators Seth Green and Matthew Senreich announced at San Diego Comic-Con that a curated selection of Detours episodes will be shown to the public at the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art.
  • The museum opens on September 22, 2026, and the screenings will run in two nonstop 299-seat theaters that visitors can enter and exit during museum hours.
  • The episodes will be museum-only with no announced plan for release on Disney+ or for home formats, meaning most fans will need to visit the museum in Los Angeles to see them.
  • Detours was produced with George Lucas and completed roughly 39 episodes before being shelved after Disney acquired Lucasfilm, though it is unclear how many episodes the museum will present or whether they will be edited or updated.
  • The decision makes the Lucas Museum a destination for rare franchise material and could prompt fan pilgrimage, renewed interest in archival releases, and questions about whether broader distribution might follow.
