We're getting a parody/update of the campy 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special in Lego form. The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special will debut on Disney as a 45-minute special on November 17. It will feature characters from the recent trilogy, including Rey, Finn, and Poe Dameron. Some of the film actors will be reprising their roles. The characters in the special will be gathering to celebrate "Life Day."

According to executive producer Josh Rimes, The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special is inspired not just by the '70s special, but also by films like Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, It's a Wonderful Life, and Christmas Vacation.
