Star Wars Zero Company Promises To Make The Empire’s Bureaucracy Even More Pointless, Fans Rejoice
A new viral marketing leak out of the Lucasfilm archives reveals that the upcoming "Star Wars: Zero Company" will follow the most chaotic squad of accountants, HR representatives, and middle managers ever to misplace a Death Star invoice. After the success of "Andor," fans of galactic office politics can finally enjoy a live-action series where the tension comes from whether a procurement form for a lightsaber battery is filed under the correct "TIE Fighter Operations" code. The irony is palpable: The "Zero Company" name isn't referring to troop count, but rather the net productivity gain from having a meeting about a meeting about the Emperor’s quarterly reviews. In a galaxy where everything is already run by faceless imperial efficiency, Disney has brilliantly decided to lean into the one thing we can all relate to—paperwork that will outlive the rebellion.
