Before The Last Jedi had even been released, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Lucasfilm announce💎d that its director Rian Johnson would be returning to Star Wars to helm aღ brand new trilogy.

That wa🅺s eight years ago, and there've been basically no updates on the new movies since. Instead, Johnson moved on to the Knives Out series, as well as another murder mystery wi♍th his show Poker Face. But, that doesn't mean he's ruling out returning to the galaxy far, far away.

. "I mean, I kind of went down the murder mystery rabbit hole – I'm focused on making other stuff. But that wouldn't rule out it happening down the line. If I get back in the Star Wars universe someday, I'd be the happiest person."

Star Wars has remained a small screen endeavour since 2019's The Rise of Skywalker, but that's set to change very soon. In May 2026, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Mandalorian & Grogu will blast onto the big screen, followed by 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Shawn Levy and Ryan Goslingꦇ's Starfighter movie in 2027.

Starfighter will also be the first Star Wars movie to take place after The Rise of Skywalker, too, though 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查꧒询:a canon novel will be the first project ever to be set later on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars timeline.

Star Wars just wrapped up 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Andor season 2 on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus, which became the most critica💯lly-acclaimed live-action project ever for the saga. It's also 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:alꩵready changing the way we watch Ro🔯gue One, just as its star 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Diego Luna promised it would.
