Disney has a few options, regardless of your opinion on the political soapbox stuff that seems to come around any time somebody employed by them starts talking. One the one hand they should probably just be quiet.

Time works wonders for things like this, and in a few years there will probably be people clamouring to return to the saga. Some parts of the audience will develop total apathy, others will start getting nostalgic. So regardless of whether any of this is a good idea simply getting on with a project quietly should be their first priority. Announcing stuff, making a big fuss, then firing people and shifting it all around makes them look weak and foolish.

On the other hand they need to take action to improve their brand. The TV shows outside Andor have been a total mess in terms of tone and quality. A course correction based on The Rise of Skywalker is probably a bad idea. But if they’re going to do it, they should get on with it. Who is directing something, who is writing it, who cares. It’s STAR WARS. They need to get back into their heads what that actually means and deliver some decent output.

Behind the scenes they’re probably panicking because their only hit recently was Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3, the final note for a series that is essentially done despite all the filler post Avengers: Endgame. If their goal is to make money then they’re running out of people who are willing to spend any. Why they’re wasting time with all this talk is baffling. But then again so is most of their decision making in the past five years.
