Deleted Scene from Star Wars: Skeleton Crew Reveals First Arab Female Jedi

Behind-the-scenes photos confirm a cut sequence featuring a Jedi, raising questions about the character's connection to Jod Na Nawood's backstory.

Actress Yasmine Al Massri shared behind-the-scenes images of her role as a Jedi in Skeleton Crew, which was ultimately cut from the finale.
Massri’s character, potentially the first Arab female Jedi in Star Wars, was speculated to be connected to Jod Na Nawood’s tragic past.
The cut scene might have explored Jod’s Jedi training and the loss of his master during the Empire’s purge, deepening his complex character arc.
Showrunner Jon Watts explained the decision to omit flashbacks, emphasizing the story’s focus on the children’s perspective and their view of Jod.
While Skeleton Crew’s future is uncertain, creators have hinted at the possibility of revisiting Jod’s backstory and Massri’s character in a potential second season.
