On Friday, Lucasfilm announced a new slate of “Star Wars” films, including one starring Daisy Ridley, reprising her role as intergalactic hero Rey Skywalker.
The news arrived during Star Wars Celebration Europe, an officially sanctioned annual fan gathering, held this year in London. Director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy will helm the new project, telling a story set 15 years after “The Rise of Skywalker.”
”This really spawns from what George Lucas said years ago, that he created ‘Star Wars’ to move forward and backward along a mythological timeline,” Kennedy told the audience. Oscar-nominated director James Mangold will head up another new movie in the series, along with “The Mandalorian” producer Dave Filoni on the other.
