Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland was always doomed

Have you ever heard the one about how Luke Skywalker saved the galaxy? Well, get ready for one more retelling, but this time at a theme park. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is getting an original trilogy makeover at Disneyland, tossing the bespoke story the attraction launched with in 2019 in favor of characters and moments from the first three movies. The version of the land at Walt Disney World will remain the same — for now, at least. And while I’m sad to be losing the Batuu that Disneyland attendees have come to know and love, this change feels inevitable considering how Walt Disney Parks and Resorts has mishandled the franchise.
