Also, you’ve got to factor in George’s “Vision”, and how there was probably something in the contract that prevented it from being tampered with.
Disney doesn’t give someone 4 billion dollars and then allow them to dictate terms. They’ll release the theatrical versions when they reach an agreement with 20th Century Fox. George has zero say in anything Star Wars.
If I had to guess, they first want to restore the franchise and distance it from his vision, then they’ll correct his mistakes and his mistreatment of the fans.
