This includes the upcoming movie from director Shawn Levy and star Ryan Gosling.
In a new interview with Deadline, Kathleen Kennedy confirmed that she is not currently stepping down from her role at Lucasfilm, but that a plan for eventual succession is beginning to form. Likewise, she also provided a collection of exciting updates for the next few Star Wars movies, one of the most exciting being the confirmation that Levy and Gosling’s movie would not only be a standalone, but that it would also be set in a post-Episode IX Star Wars galaxy:
“Shawn’s is a standalone Star Wars story that’ll take place post 9, maybe five or six years out…And with this, it’s all pretty much new characters. We may bring some of the characters back from the sequel saga, but pretty much new characters…”
Kennedy also confirmed that Shawn Levy’s Star Wars movie would be the next theatrical release following Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni’s The Mandalorian & Grogu which is set to be released in 2026.Source: Deadline
