our decades before The Mandalorian, Star Wars fans experienced live-action Star Wars television with Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure!
The backstory:
- Originally titled The Ewok Adventure, Caravan of Courage was aired on ABC for the first time on November 25th, 1984
- After receiving the second-highest ratings for any ABC movie that year, the film was aired on the Disney Channel before receiving a limited international theatrical release
- The success of the film led to a sequel, The Battle for Endor, being filmed and released the following year
Deeper dive:
- The movie follows a pair of children on the Forest Moon of Endor after a crash landing as they attempt to find their parents with the help of the local Ewoks
- Random House published a number of tie-in children’s books called the ‘Ewok Adventures’ surrounding the film with further stories of Wicket, Kneesa, and more
- George Lucas originally had the idea for the movie thanks to his daughter’s love for the Ewoks
Looking ahead:
- In 2021, Caravan of Courage was made available for streaming on Disney+ alongside The Battle for Endor and the classic Ewoks cartoons
- The Ewoks continue their adventures today in the Ewoks comic book written by Steve Orlando with art by Álvaro López and Laura Braga
