Great news for Star Wars fans hoping to hear news of a Knights of the Old Republic series or movie from Lucasfilm head Kathleeen Kennedy.
Speaking at Star Wars Celebration at the weekend, Kennedy revealed a few cool things about the future of the Force.
She revealed at we will likely see characters from the new movies again in the future even after the Skywalker saga ends – we’re guessing Rey, Finn and Poe – and that Disney+ may even be the way for that happen.
She revealed at Solo made them believe two Star Wars movies a year was too much. She revealed at female directors are working on The Mandalorian series and will be working on the Cassian Andor series too.
But most exciting, she revealed the a Knights of the Old Republic story could be coming: “You know, we talk about that all the time.
“Yes, we are developing something to look at. Right now, I have no idea where things might fall, but we have to be careful that there is a cadence to Star Wars that doesn’t start to feel like too much. We don’t have a crystal ball, you know, we tried a little bit with ‘Solo’ to see if we could do two movies a year and whether or not there really was an opportunity for that, and we felt that’s not going to work. So, we back off of that a little bit. But it doesn’t mean we don’t think about lots of different stories, because that’s the exciting thing about this universe.” (Watch the interview below).
A while back we heard rumours that Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss planned Staar Wars trilogy will focus on the Old Republic, so maybe there’s something to it after all…
