This will surprise literally no one. The mythological Rey movie has now been removed from the release schedule according to the Hollywood Reporter. Star Wars was originally supposed to have two movies in 2026. The Mandalorian & Grogu in May and the Rey movie in December. But with the latter still not having a script and not a writer – yet again (this is the second time now) – it was inevitable that the movie would be removed from the schedule. There simply would be no time anymore to finish the movie in time for a December 2026 release. Click through for a discussion!

The headline says it all. Earlier today an official release date for Andor season 2 was given. Nothing else was said and no trailer was released. My guess is that marketing for Andor will only begin once Skeleton Crew has finished to avoid any confusion and overlap.
Are you excited for season 2 of Andor? Will anyone who initially did not watch Andor season 1 watch season 2?
As of now Andor will be the only new Star Wars on Disney+ in all of 2025. Nothing else for 2025 has been announced. Which means Andor will be the last new Star Wars before The Mandalorian and Grogu movie hits theaters in May 2026.

According to Deadline (a reputable trade magazine with actual inside sources) Lucasfilm is at it yet again… according to Deadline’s sources Kathleen Kennedy hired Simon Kinberg to make an all new trilogy of Star Wars movies, he will be the sole writer and producer (alongside Kennedy). According to the article there is some dispute about whether Kinberg will write episodes X-XII of the Skywalker saga or make an all new trilogy. Deadline’s sources told them it’ll be actually Episodes X-XII.
Now, Lucasfilm themselves have not announced anything, Kennedy did not walk out on some stage and talked about this new project. But you can usually trust Deadline to be correct when they post these things on their front page.
Kinberg has worked for Star Wars before, he was co-creator and writer for Rebels, he’s also the person who wrote the horrific Dark Phoenix X-Men movie and he’s also the one who wrote the 2015 Fantastic Four movie. So let’s just say my confidence in Kinberg is not particularly high. Even if other works like the RDJ Sherlock Holmes movie were received a lot better.
But since this is Lucasfilm let’s just all have a good laugh and wait for the inevitable report by any of the Hollywood trades that Kinberg no longer works on yet another trilogy. He can join Rian Johnson, Benioff & Weiss, Taika Waititi, Leslye Headland, Colin Trevorrow, Damon Lindelof, Steven Knight, Patty Jenkins et al in the clubhouse soon!
Why is Kathleen Kennedy still in charge over at Lucasfilm, planning nonsense things?
Read the original report by Deadline here!
Another day at the Lucasfilm offices
