Screenwriting duo Dan Hernandez and Benji Samit (Spaceballs 2, Pokémon Detective Pikachu, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem, The Addams Family 2) drop into HypeFriend to show how a friendship‑first partnership delivers laughter to audiences—including their next project, LEGO® Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy - Pieces of the Past on Disney+. We trace their theater kid meet‑cute in a college lighting booth, the yin/yang strengths that keep their work brave, the loyalty that opened doors (hi, Josh Gad!), and how “failure” can become your best break. Inside Rebuild the Galaxy, we talk joyful mash‑ups (yes, Darth Jar Jar), why Ahsoka’s heart still shines—even as a BrickHead—and the thrill of playing with every toy in a galaxy far, far away. If you’re building anything with a friend, this is your blueprint.

Join us in our friendship revolution, one HypeFriend (and one LEGO brick) at a time!
