A Secret Marvel Cameo

Spoiler Warning!
This story contains spoilers for "Star Wars: Skeleton Crew" season 1, episode 3.
There are lots of interesting aliens in "Star Wars: Skeleton Crew," and some of them are so interesting that you may not realize the full extent of their impact until the credits.
One such figure is Benjar Pranic, a former member of Jod Na Nawood's crew. Knowing that Jod should be imprisoned, the alien reveals that Jod now has Brutus' entire crew after him.
Pranic gets quite a few lines for what seems like a throwaway character, as he's voiced by a very familiar Marvel Cinematic Universe actor: Alfred Molina.
Molina played Otto "Doctor Octopus" Octavius in Sam Raimi's "Spider-Man 2," and reprised the role in the 2021 Marvel multiverse-hopper "Spider-Man: No Way Home."
Since "Star Wars: Skeleton Crew" clearly intends to continue the franchise's long-standing cameo tradition, fans may want to keep their eyes peeled for the next major name.
