The “Star Wars” movie future just came into sharper focus: Daisy Ridley’s Rey will be the center of the first “Star Wars” feature film since 2019’s “The Rise of Skywalker,” Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy announced at Star Wars Celebration in London on Friday. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy (“Ms. Marvel”) will direct from a script by Steven Knight (“Peaky Blinders”). The film follows the events of “Rise of Skywalker,” and will focus on Rey as she builds a new Jedi Order.

Along with Obaid-Chinoy’s film, Kennedy also announced that James Mangold (who just directed Lucasfilm’s upcoming “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny”) and Dave Filoni (executive producer of the Disney+ series “The Mandalorian” and “Ahsoka”) will direct upcoming “Star Wars” movies.

Look at the bright side, Haters.

By the time the film is made she'll be old enough to be the semi-paretal mentor character, and as I've said many times before... The mentor character ALWAYS dies!

A bit bold to announce this before Indiana Jones 5 is released.

I have no problem with Daisy. She did ok with the garbage that she was given to work with. Hopefully they give her a better story this time.

Don't believe it. Kathleen Kennedy is bullshitting again.
