Rift Wars

Rift Wars is the hour-long premiere of the sixth season of the American animated television series Deathspider and the first part of the series' trilogy Rift Wars. It originally aired on Nick Jr. in the United States on September 23, 2027. The episode is a retelling and parody of the 2015 video game LEGO Dimensions and the 1977 blockbuster film, Star Wars, recasting the show's characters into Star Wars roles. The plot follows Rick as he reads his first novel in a sci-fi epic novel trilogy while the electricity is out in their house. Rick takes the kids on an epic adventure through the multiverse. Markus' use of music, sound effects, and sensory details is very crisp and clear to the viewer, making for an unforgettable episode. It was written and directed by Genndy Tartakovsky. To produce the installment the staff asked Disney, Lucasfilm, Warner Bros. and TT Games, the companies who owns the rights to the Star Wars franchise and LEGO video games, for permission. Rift Wars guest starred Gary Oldman, Bill Hader, Richard E. Grant, and Judd Nelson.
