Another new series on the horizon doesn't even have a title, just a code name: Grammar Rodeo,a reference to an episode of The Simpsons in which Bart and his schoolmates steal a car and run away for a week, using a phony educational event as an alibi. The show takes place during the post–Return of the Jedireconstruction that follows the fall of the Empire, the same as The Mandalorian, but its plot remains a secret. It's created and executive-produced by director Jon Watts and writer Chris Ford, who made Spider-Man: Homecoming for Marvel. A casting notice has called for four children, around 11 to 12 years old. Inside Lucasfilm, the show is being described as a galactic version of classic Amblin coming-of-age adventure films of the '80s.
