I have also heard these Doomcock rumors but not from him which is probably why I have different take on them. From what I gathered, it sounded less like “erasing the Sequel Trilogy” or even “resetting”; it sounded more like opening to all possibilities. It sounded to me to be a lot like a comic book-style multiverse or even like Lucas’ old approach to canon. So, in theory, they can have all the current Sequel Trilogy stuff on one side and the old EU stuff on the other side with possible new material picking up after the Fate of the Jedi series. That’s what it sounded like to me anyways and I could be wrong. It does seem like some people really think they’re going to just kick the Sequel Trilogy and be done with it. I seriously doubt that will ever happen, despite how much I want them to. It’s not like Disney can just wipe the slate and try again so I think people are naive if they think that’s what is going to happen.

B.) Bob Iger is no longer CEO!

Technically, Iger did take the position back “temporarily”.

Is there any news on the Kenobi movie/TV show/miniseries/Apple Watch exclusive video game? Having recently seen T2 Trainspotting, season 3 of Fargo, and Birds of Prey, I’m really down for some more Ewan McGregor.

Last I heard it was set to debut in 2022. From the way it sounds, they’re super focused on the scripts.
