Jod Na Nawood’s Brightest Moment in Star Wars: Skeleton Crew Makes Luke Skywalker’s Cringiest Moment Look Tame
In Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, Jod Na Nawood, played by Jude Law, has one scene that makes Luke Skywalker’s famous “I am your father” moment look rather tame. This cringeworthy moment is reminiscent of Luke’s infamous mistake when trying out a lightsaber in Obi-Wan Kenobi’s home on Tatooine. In Skeleton Crew, Jod Na Nawood makes a similar mistake that has the potential to be fatal.
Jod’s inexperience with lightsabers is evident as he uses the Force to tug the hilt of the weapon away from Wim, but fails to notice the emitter is facing him. This could have led to Wim igniting the igniting the blade and piercing through Jod, following a similar fate as some Sith characters, such as Asajj Ventress and The Stranger.
Jed Na Nawood’s lack of experience with lightsabers is further highlighted in this moment, making his mistake a comical one. The scene showcases the cast’s reactions as they watch Jod’s flailing attempts to use the lightsaber, making it an embarrassing and humorous moment in the show.
Skeleton Crew, a Disney+ original series, follows four ordinary children who find themselves lost in the vast Star Wars galaxy. As they navigate their journey, they face various challenges and obstacles. The series has concluded, setting up potential future storylines and character developments.
The show’s cast includes Jude Law, Ravi Cabot-Conyers, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Kyriana Kratter, Robert Timothy Smith, Nick Frost, Fred Tatasciore, and many others.
