While the next Star Wars series will soon be launched on the Disney Plus streaming service, the next film is still a long time coming. After the recent setbacks, new chaos is now looming – and Rey is right in the middle of it.

Fans don’t have to wait too long until they can finally immerse themselves in the huge “Star Wars” universe again. On December 3, 2024, the starting signal will finally be given for the new series “Skeleton Crew”, which is exclusive on Disney Plus will be seen.

However, it will take significantly longer until the next full-length film ends up in the cinema. The current chaos behind the scenes is anything but helpful.

What’s next for Rey in Star Wars?

At least according to a recent report from The Hollywood Reporter according to. According to this, the character Rey from the sequel trilogy seems to be of particular importance. According to unnamed sources, the “Star Wars” heroine is currently viewed as “Star Wars’ most valuable cinematic asset” and has a correspondingly high status at Lucasfilm.

If we are to believe the sources of the well-connected industry magazine, Lucasfilm is currently said to have several films in the works in which Rey could play a central role. However, the development of these films seems to be quite chaotic, as some directors are said not to know what their colleagues are working on and how all these projects could influence each other.

But that’s not all that emerges from the THR report. We have summarized the most important information for you in a small list below:

  • Films in progress are not related to each other, although whichever film is released first could create a domino effect and influence the other works
  • George Lucas’ original Star Wars trilogy is considered the “Old Testament” by both Lucasfilm executives and filmmakers
  • There are said to be disagreements among those responsible because no one can agree on anything due to many “doubts about the meanings”.
  • A particular focus should be on nostalgia “and they are running out of options to create nostalgia.”

Which Star Wars series will start next?

At least no one can complain about the supply of new series any time soon. In addition to the already mentioned “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew,” other projects are about to be released. The starting signal will be given on an as yet unspecified day in April 2025 Season 2 of “Star Wars: Andor”. Furthermore, there has already been the green light for a second season „Star Wars: Ahsoka“.
