As many speculated, that “hint” from THR the other day was just in that new indie film she has coming out soon. So that’s the end of that.
As Marooned said above, that is a little disappointing.
I hope her new independent film does well, I haven’t seen her in much other than the Sequels, so will give it a watch when it is released.
The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.

Watch out Rebels, a new contender for creepiest-looking Yoda portrayal has emerged!

Looks like Yoda went metrosexual on our asses. Y’all can’t tell me he isn’t wearing guyliner in that pic.
“The Anarchists are right in everything; in the negation of the existing order and in the assertion that, without Authority there could not be worse violence than that of Authority under existing conditions. They are mistaken only in thinking that anarchy can be instituted by a violent revolution… There can be only one permanent revolution — a moral one: the regeneration of the inner man. How is this revolution to take place? Nobody knows how it will take place in humanity, but every man feels it clearly in himself. And yet in our world everybody thinks of changing humanity, and nobody thinks of changing himself.”
― Leo Tolstoy

I read on variety they cancelled Rogue Squadron again, but they are saying shelved. Yeah sure shelved. I’m sure it will happen just like those Rian Johnson movies. That Kevin Feige thing is also cancelled. Shelved,lol. Who are they kidding. They are never happening.
Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson have apparently exited the Star Wars film they were working on, according to sources.
I mean at this rate who hasn’t been fired from their job at LFL over creative differences.
If true, then I don’t know who will be crying over Lindlelof being taken off a SW product.

Yeah I don’t even care anymore, at this point. This is all just funny now.

It’s one big joke and I’m laughing.
But in all seriousness, I’m okay with this news. New Star Wars films (to which I really don’t think there needs to be any more) should only be made when a new film is absolutely ready and they have a story that must be told. You can’t just make Star Wars for the sake of making Star Wars. Not trying to be cynical, but I just can’t see anything good happening from the studio trying to force a story to be made.
And they should have never announced the films they did. I’m okay with the cancellations, but it looks bad on Lucasfilm’s part.
Move along, move along.
I actually wanted a post Rise of Skywalker Rey movie. If that was what was cancelled i’m sort of upset but i’ll get over it. Future movies have potential even if ROS disappointed a lot of people.

From what I understand the director of the project is still there, and rumors are pointing towards the project moving forward. So there’s still a very high likelihood it still happens just with a new writer. And since Lindelof was feeling hesitant about doing it, its probably for the best of the story.
(Edited to correct and clarify on rumored info)
Move along, move along.
Lindelof’s replacement announced:
Apparently the plan is still to reveal info about the movie at Celebration.

By all accounts a more appreciated writer but I can’t see them staying the course any more than all the others.
Rumor now has it they’re not just announcing one film at Celebration next month, but three of them.
Sneider was on Rocha’s show again just now and clarified that Knight’s script will basically be a full-blown rewrite. He claims LFL wasn’t happy with Lindelof’s draft. He also reiterated that three new films will be announced at Celebration. He also said that LFL was told to only focus on star wars from now on.

"Today during Lucasfilm’s Studio Showcase at Star Wars Celebration Europe 2023, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy announced that three new live-action Star Wars films are on the way. Helming the movies are James Mangold (Logan, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny), Dave Filoni (The Mandalorian, Ahsoka), and Academy Award- and Emmy Award-winning director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy (Ms. Marvel, Saving Face).
James Mangold’s movie will go back to the dawn of the Jedi, while Dave Filoni’s will focus on the New Republic, and close out the interconnected stories told in The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka, and other Disney+ series. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy’s film will be set after the events of Rise of Skywalker, and feature Daisy Ridley back as Rey as she builds a new Jedi Order."

Given the number of other films and projects that get cancelled I don’t think I’ll be getting to excited about any of these making it to screen.
Good for Daisy Ridley to return to Star Wars, hopefully she won’t get the poison and sexist abuse she got the last time doing the Sequel Trilogy, that the film will happen, and will be a big hit.

Seeing that they’ve decided to move forward with the sequel timeline really has sunk all my excitement for the future post-OT. They really are gonna connect the Mandoverse to the sequels, aren’t they? Ughhhh… This company never learns any lessons and I don’t think they are capable of making a single good decision.
Couldn’t care any less for Rey, and honestly hoping this one gets the “cancelled” treatment. Sorry Disney, but rebuilding the New Jedi Order is and always will be Luke’s journey, and the fact you ripped that achievement from him to give it to your mediocre character, is an even bigger slap in the face and makes me hate the character even more.
At least there’s the James Mangold movie to look forward to. I love the Dawn of the Jedi comics, so hopefully they are using elements from that.

Yeah, pretty much. The Mangold film is the only one of these that I’m mildly interested in. And even then, I’m still concerned about it.
I am surprised that they’re doing movies set so far apart in the timeline, though. All this timeline jumping could be confusing for casual viewers.
But we can’t turn back. Fear is their greatest defense. I doubt if the actual security there is any greater than it was on Aquilae or Sullust. And what there is is most likely directed towards a large-scale assault.

Oh I’m sure they’ll ruin that timeline too. I’m only mildly interested in the possibility of it being decent, but won’t hold my breath. I’d be excited in Filoni’s, but seeing that they are actually moving forward with the sequel timeline, means the Mandoverse content all leads to the abysmal sequels, which has made all of it irrelevant to me.
Hopefully it’s disconnected enough to be faneditted with no connection to the sequels. That’s the only positive I can see coming from it.
This is interesting news and I think this is a really good trio of movies as there’s something for everyone. I know some people won’t like that they’re going back to the sequels, but I’m glad because 2/3 of the sequel trilogy was actually really good, and there are fans of that trilogy that are going to be chomping at the bit to see something, anything, out of the sequels given how fast they were abandoned after the disaster that was Rise of Skywalker. The trilogy isn’t going to be fondly remembered when that movie is the final note and them not doing anything with it is what’s giving the impression that the sequel trilogy was a failure even though it all made over 1 Billion Dollars.
Then you’ve got the one I’m most excited about, the James Mangold movie set at the beginning of the Jedi era. I think this one could really appeal to the segment of the fanbase that hasn’t really liked anything Star Wars outside of the original trilogy as this era hasn’t been at all depicted during the Disney era. I think that the stuff that’s working best for Disney’s Star Wars is the series that debuted and focus on completely new characters, I’m talking about Rogue One Andor and The first 2 seasons of The Mandalorian. I think this could appeal to the segment of fans that don’t like much outside The Original Trilogy as we won’t have to compare characters with how they were previously depicted. Also, James Mangold is a fantastic director and if Disney doesn’t interfere too much it’ll be really good.
We’ve also got a movie for fans of the Finoni-verse which has a lot of fans that really seem to love his stuff, I consider myself one of them. Personally, I’m hoping that it’s going to be an animated 3D CG movie because that type of animation on a movie budget would look absolutely incredible. That and the fact that his stuff that’s been inserted into The Mandalorian hasn’t been received that well so maybe seeing some distance from that by doing an animated movie might be a good idea. But yeah if all of these Actually Come Out And Aren’t Cancelled, I think these could do pretty well as they’re really trying to appeal to all segments of the Star Wars fanbase with this.
I can already imagine all those fanedits that will add “Episode X” to the Rey film and the classic opening crawl 😄
I’d say I’m equally intrigued by all three of these.

Seems interesting. I’m glad they’re doing more standalones and I’m glad they’re all widely differing ideas. Looking at the timeline, it looks very Legends-y which depending on your tastes can be good or bad.
I’ve never been too interested in the idea of exploring the early Jedi Order, but Mangold seems to be a good director and maybe they can lean more into the Tales of the Jedi comics in terms of visuals?
Filoni’s film debut could be interesting. I’m curious as to how all the moving pieces will connect, and I’m a bit excited to see Mando and Ahsoka on the big screen, even though I’ve sort of fallen off the boat with the “Mando-verse.” I don’t always agree with Filoni’s decisions, but he is talented.
And the Obaid-Chinoy film could be interesting. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate Rey or anything, but I don’t know how I feel about her starting the new Jedi Order instead of Luke. That’s just something I’ll have to get over I guess. We’ll just see how it goes.
Unlike the other previously announced and cancelled films, I’m fairly confident we’ll see these films come to light. I also don’t feel like any of these ideas jump out at me. I’m looking forward to them, but I’m not particularly excited about any of them. Maybe as time goes on I’ll feel differently.
Move along, move along.
