Between Rian Johnson’s trilogy and Benioff’s and Weiss’s series, it sounds like they’ve got plenty of serialized stories in the pipeline. I certainly don’t feel any desire for episodes X-XII, but ask me again in a decade and I may have changed my mind. In the immediate future, I hope we get a third anthology film, because abandoning that project after only two movies seems like an awkward way to leave things. Kenobi would be my first choice of the usual options that get thrown around, but I do also want a Solo follow-up while Alden Ehrenreich is still the right age for one. Beyond that, I guess my only hope is that Rian’s and B&W’s movies have some sort of radically different setting from what we’ve already seen, in terms of either time or space. The obvious play is to delve into the deep past and do something akin to KOTOR, but I can think of a couple ways to make something fresh in the same general era as the Skywalker saga as well. Something focused on exploration could be interesting. I think that a sort of Star Trek/Indiana Jones mashup with a (New or Old) Republic (or even Imperial) crew in the Unknown Regions would be a lot of fun.
