Star Wars is in a transitional phase, with a mix of delayed or canceled movies and a focus on Disney Plus TV shows. Lucasfilm and Disney have outlined their plans for the future, including upcoming projects and release dates.
In 2024, the Disney Plus series “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” will premiere, directed by Jon Watts and starring Jude Law. The show is set around the same time as “The Mandalorian” and is described as a throwback to ’80s Amblin movies. Additionally, the second season of “Andor” is slated for 2025, continuing the critically acclaimed series.
The Mandalorian and Grogu will make their big-screen debut in a movie directed by Jon Favreau, scheduled for release in 2026. Lucasfilm is also developing a second season of “Ahsoka” and several untitled Star Wars movies, including projects from directors Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, Dave Filoni, James Mangold, and Taika Waititi. While details on these projects are limited, they promise to expand the Star Wars universe in new and exciting ways.
