It’s unclear if other stars — like Daisy Ridley, Oscar Isaac, John Boyega, Mark Hamill and others — will join the special.

“Lego Star Wars Holiday Special” will feature “Star Wars” legends Rey, Finn and Poe Dameron, who will return to celebrate Life Day — the Christmas-like holiday introduced in the 1978 classic “Star Wars Holiday Special,” which premiered Nov. 17, 1978, on CBS.

  • The special will take place after “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.” Rey and BB-8 will visit a Jedi Temple that sends them through time to interact with previous characters from the “Star Wars” universe, including Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda and more, which Disney Plus previously said in a release.
