After a few years of rest in the cinematic space and a shift/recovery of attention towards his various television series, the always inexhaustible Star Wars is finally returning to the world of cinemathe starting point of a phenomenon which, let us remember, began in the 70s of the last century.
In the Star Wars celebration done a few days agoIndie thread informed that the president of lucasfilm, Kathleen Kennedyhe told an absorbed crowd that currently – today, now, now, now – work is being done “in a trilogy of new films”films that include new collaborations from James Mangold (who recently worked with the team of lucasfilm In Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destinywhich will be released this summer).
But when can fans expect to see these movies? As Kennedy said Empire during an interview at this year’s London event, “not until 2025”… soon. “It’s much better to tell the truth: We’ll make these movies when they’re ready to be shot and release them to the market when they’re ready to be released,” she said without raising any false expectations.
Kennedy and company are already thinking about how the films will release when the time comes, which will likely include a break between films, a frequent trend in sagas for “possibilize” so that viewers will continue to be fans of the never ending franchise.
From Star Wars to James Bond
“I sometimes give James Bond as an example of what should be done…”, he said in the interview. “These movies can come out every three or four years, sometimes more, sometimes less, and there’s no pressure to feel like you have to make a movie every year. well i feel like Bond is very important to the Star Wars case. We have to turn each of those films into an event that generates anticipation.”
Taking time out between movies certainly sounds like a good idea, especially after the four-year adventure that was “the release template” for the recent sequel trilogy.
However, second indiewireseems like a good time to remind Kennedy and his ilk that if anything the later films are about Star Wars is to make “an event” every time they are released.
Kennedy also offered some new details on what will likely be the first film, since Obaid-Chinoywhich begins 15 years after the events of The Rise of Skywalker. “What we’re exploring is the evolution of the Jedi,” Kennedy said before adding that the prequels can go much further than a certain idea of the past.
“Let’s go back in time, but let’s look at the present. The First Order has fallen, the Jedi are in chaos, there’s even a question of how many exist and Rey is building the New Jedi Order, according to the text they gave her and that Luke imparted to her,” he anticipated by way of synopsis.
