Star Wars Movies And TV Shows After ‘Rise Of Skywalker’
“Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” just hit theaters, but fans are already wondering when they’ll return to a galaxy far, far away. Luckily, Lucasfilm has plenty of new movies and TV shows lined up for after the Skywalker Saga ends.
“The Mandalorian” — There’s one episode left of the Disney+ drama’s first season, otherwise known as the Baby Yoda Show. The season finale releases Friday, Dec. 27, but don’t say goodbye to Pedro Pascal-led drama yet. The first live-action Star Wars TV show has been very successful, and “The Mandalorian” has already been renewed for Season 2. Production on the new season has already begun.
“Star Wars: The Clone Wars” — The animated series, canceled in 2013, will return with a 12-episode seventh and final season helmed by Dave Filoni. Cast members Matt Lanter, Ashley Eckstein, James Arnold Taylor and Dee Bradley Baker will also be back.
Kevin Feige Movie — The Marvel Studios mastermind has a few other projects on his plate. He’s busy re-launching the Marvel Cinematic Universe post-“Avengers: Endgame,” so his movie is reportedly still in the early development phase.
Rian Johnson Trilogy — The “Last Jedi” director is expected to create a whole new trilogy with Ram Bergman set to produce. No details are out yet, but Johnson has said that after promoting “Knives Out,” he’ll be focusing on a new intergalactic adventure.
Obi-Wan Kenobi TV Show — Ewan McGregor will return as the legendary Jedi Master for a solo Disney+ series. The events will take place eight years after “Revenge of the Sith” and 11 years before “A New Hope.” The show will film in 2020.
Cassian Andor TV Show — This “Rogue One” prequel series will stream on Disney+ too. Diego Luna returns as the titular character while Alan Tudyk is set to voice droid K-2SO again.
Don’t expect too much too soon, though. “Rise of Skywalker” ends the Star Wars saga as fans know it so far, and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy is keen to take time to develop the next projects.
“We’re literally making this up from whole cloth and bringing in filmmakers to find what these stories might be,” Kennedy told the Los Angeles Times. “It can take a while before you find what direction you might want to go. We need the time to do that.”
