Elijah Wood calls for reviving the forgotten Lucasfilm franchise "Sam & Max Hit the Road"

Elijah Wood has proposed reviving the long-forgotten Lucasfilm franchise on television, insisting that after nearly thirty years there is still something to explore.

Elijah Wood has championed Sam & Max's TV revival, insisting the Lucasfilm franchise still has huge potential nearly three decades after its debut in games and comics. According to the actor, there are no official plans yet, but he would like to see the duo return in the form of an animated series.

In a conversation with ScreenRant, against the backdrop of his current involvement in the Among Us project, Wood recalled the classic 1993 LucasArts quest Sam & Max Hit the Road and noted that the game literally begs to be animated.

“Sam & Max Hit the Road has a really cool art style, it deserves an animated series.”

It's important to remember that Sam & Max didn't start out as a video game: the comic book was created by Steve Purcell. Then came film adaptations and games that formed the cult status of the brand.

• original black and white comics by Steve Purcell
• cult quest LucasArts Sam & Max Hit the Road (1993)
• episodic revivals from Telltale Games
• late 90s animated series "The Adventures of Sam and Max: Free Police" - one season, but it still has fans (available on Tubi and Pluto TV)

The path to a new series is not so simple: everything is complicated with the rights, and Lucasfilm Games is busy with much larger deals like Star Wars and Indiana Jones. However, the company is not ignoring its classics: it recently greenlit Return to Monkey Island and is overseeing the much-talked-about remake of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.

The timing for the relaunch also looks good in terms of trends: TV and film adaptations of games are on the rise, from Arcane and the upcoming Devil May Cry on Netflix to the successful Sonic the Movies and Super Mario Bros. Audiences embrace eccentric worlds, and Sam & Max fits perfectly into that wave.

Ubisoft counted on the huge success of Star Wars Outlaws and prepared 6 add-ons instead of two

According to a reliable insider on the Star Wars universe, known under the nickname FivesWalker, the original plan for supporting the game Star Warrs Outlaws involved the release of six story expansions, not two, as came out in reality. The reason is that Ubisoft management was confident that the project would be “MUCH more successful” than it actually was.

Star Wars Outlaws was expected to be much more successful than it turned out to be. Initially, 6 additions were planned, one of which was supposed to be directly related to the novel. And yes, a sequel was even planned.

Star Wars Outlaws faced a mixed reaction: technical roughness at launch coincided with a culture war over the appearance of the main character and general fatigue with sandboxes. Over time, gamers began to reconsider their opinion, appreciating the adventures of Kay and Nyx, but this could not save the situation.

It was previously reported that the Outlaws sequel was canceled due to low sales. The news of six planned DLCs is further confirmation of how catastrophic the discrepancy between expectations and reality has been for the publisher. Now fans can only guess what other adventures are in store for Kay and her little companion.

9 Jedi Who Survived Darth Vader

Darth Vader worked for decades to destroy all the Jedi, and only nine of them managed to survive. Order 66, by any measure, was a phenomenal success for Emperor Palpatine: nearly 10,000 Force Knights across the galaxy died in an instant.

Only the most powerful, most skilled and incredibly lucky managed to survive the wrath of Darth Sidious. Moreover, in the entire Star Wars canon we know of only a few who managed to escape.

Who Ryan Gosling Plays in Star Wars: Starfighter Revealed

With The Mandalorian and Grogu likely to gross the smallest box office in Star Wars history under Disney, attention will soon turn to Starfighter. Will the film be able to “save” a franchise for the big screen that has existed only on streaming for more than six years?

The director is Shawn Levy, who knows how to shoot projects that audiences like. Just remember the comic book film Deadpool and Wolverine, which grossed more than $1 billion.

The plot of the film takes place after Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Sunrise". This is the first big title that will show events after the sequel trilogy. This carries certain risks, although Ryan Gosling in the lead role gives hope for success at the box office (just look at “The End of the World Project”).

Some potential plot details for Starfighter have recently leaked online. Now there are details about the main characters from the FivesWalker insider on the social network.

Is Galactic Racer finally giving Star Wars racing its own identity?

Star Wars racing has always had one problem.

This event has already reached the peak of its popularity in people's memory.

For many players, the conversation begins and ends with Star Wars Episode I: Racer. Fast podracing, dangerous tracks, roaring alien engines and Sebulba, the most unbearable villain in the world of motorsports. This game turned one episode of The Phantom Menace into one of the most beloved Star Wars games of its time.

So the big question for Star Wars: Galactic Racer isn't just whether the game can be fun.

The question is whether he can escape the influence of the ghost of podracing.

Star Wars Zero Company received a release date at Summer Game Fest 2026 - a strategy with Anakin and a flexible squad system

At Summer Game Fest 2026, Jeff Kbley presented a new trailer for Star Wars Zero Company and confirmed the release date - August 27, 2026. For Star Wars fans, this is one of those announcements that's hard to miss: a rare franchise strategy that tries to combine story-driven scope with tactical gameplay.

The trailer showed controllable units of different types, which hints at Zero Company's flexible formation system. Separately, the appearance of Anakin Skywalker is intriguing - it is not yet clear whether he will be a playable character or part of the story. Such uncertainty, frankly, only fuels interest.

The game will be released on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in standard and Deluxe versions with different price models, and an upgrade between them will be available separately.

The release date for the Star Wars add-on for PowerWash Simulator 2 has finally arrived

The galaxy is dirty, and it looks like the Rebellion is outsourcing.

The PowerWash Simulator 2 Star Wars Pack now has a release date of July 16, 2026. This paid DLC will add dirt, ships, locations and a suspiciously large amount of galactic dust from the Star Wars universe to FuturLab's highly entertaining cleaning simulator.

On the official PowerWash Simulator 2: STAR WARS Pack page on Steam the release date is indicated as July 16 and it is confirmed that the DLC requires a basic game.

Yes, it's true.

Someone looked at Star Wars, a franchise known for grit, grease, broken equipment, Rebel hangars, Imperial metal, soot, and questionable maintenance standards, and rightly decided: this galaxy needs a pressure washer.
