Celebrating 12 Years of Disney and Lucasfilm
October 30th marks a milestone—the 12th anniversary of Disney’s acquisition of Lucasfilm. Since 2012, Disney has revolutionized the Star Wars universe, from launching the sequel trilogy to opening Galaxy’s Edge theme park. As Disney continues to expand the Star Wars galaxy with groundbreaking shows like The Mandalorian, Andor, and Ahsoka, this anniversary offers a chance to look back at how much has evolved. We’ll chat about how Disney has reshaped Star Wars storytelling and what this means for fans looking forward to the next 12 years.
What’s Happening with the Rey Movie?
The New Jedi Order film featuring Daisy Ridley’s Rey is stirring up excitement—and questions. With Steven Knight recently departing as screenwriter, Lucasfilm is searching for fresh talent to write the next chapter in Rey’s journey as she rebuilds the Jedi Order 15 years after The Rise of Skywalker. Could this be the start of a new series? Ridley hinted at the possibility, referring to the project as “new one/new ones,” leaving fans speculating about a multi-film arc. We’ll break down the details and discuss what this film means for the future of the Jedi.
Mando & Grogu Head to the Big Screen!
It’s official! The The Mandalorian & Grogu movie, directed by Jon Favreau, has wrapped filming and is scheduled to hit theaters on May 22, 2026. Fans will see Pedro Pascal return as Din Djarin alongside his beloved Force-sensitive companion, Grogu, as they embark on a fresh adventure in a post-Mandalorian world. With appearances from fan-favorites like Bo-Katan Kryze, Ahsoka Tano, and the addition of Sigourney Weaver, this is shaping up to be a Star Wars cinematic event. We’ll give you all the details, including how cutting-edge technology helped preserve the project’s secrets, keeping fans guessing.
Behind the Scenes with Skeleton Crew
Empire Magazine recently sat down with Skeleton Crew’s creative team—Jon Watts, Bryce Dallas Howard, David Lowery, and more—to reveal exciting new details about the series. The show, which follows a group of lost kids trying to find their way home in the Star Wars galaxy, combines nostalgic, hands-on effects with today’s tech for a truly unique experience.
