The Star Wars franchise has been a cultural phenomenon for over four decades now, and fans eagerly anticipate each new installment in the series. With the recent conclusion of the Skywalker Saga in Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, many are left wondering what’s next for the beloved franchise.
So, what will the next Star Wars movie be? Let’s take a look.
The Future of Star Wars
Firstly, it’s important to note that there is no official word on what the plot or title of the next Star Wars movie will be. However, there have been several announcements about upcoming projects that are sure to excite fans.
Rian Johnson Trilogy
One of the most highly anticipated projects is a trilogy of films from writer-director Rian Johnson. Johnson previously directed Episode VIII: The Last Jedi, which divided fans with its bold creative choices. However, regardless of your opinion on that film, it’s clear that Johnson has a unique vision for the Star Wars universe.
There has been no official announcement about what these films will be about or when they’ll be released, but rumors suggest that they could explore new corners of the galaxy far, far away and introduce entirely new characters.
Kevin Feige Project
Another exciting announcement is that Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige is working on a new Star Wars movie. Feige is known for his success in overseeing the Marvel Cinematic Universe and bringing together multiple franchises into one interconnected story.
Again, there are no details yet on what Feige’s project will entail or when we can expect it to hit theaters. However, his involvement alone is enough to get fans excited about what could be in store.
Disney+ Series
While not technically a movie, it’s worth mentioning that there are also several Star Wars series in development for Disney+. These include The Mandalorian (which has already premiered to critical acclaim) and a series centered around Obi-Wan Kenobi, with Ewan McGregor reprising his role from the prequel trilogy.
These series will explore different corners of the Star Wars universe in a way that movies just can’t. They also provide an opportunity to delve deeper into beloved characters and explore their stories in greater detail.
Final Thoughts
While we don’t yet know what the next Star Wars movie will be, there are plenty of exciting projects on the horizon for fans to look forward to. From Rian Johnson’s trilogy to Kevin Feige’s secret project, it’s clear that the galaxy far, far away is not done expanding anytime soon. And with Disney+ providing even more opportunities for storytelling, it’s an exciting time to be a Star Wars fan.
