Why the STAR WARS sequel trilogy had to REMOVE Luke Skywalker

In numerous earlier videos, we have described how Lucasfilm is a fractured company, divided over competing creative visions and which values should be instilled into the property.

We have recently learned more details about just how deep this divide goes. In this video, we will take a deep dive into the details of how fundamentally Kathleen Kennedy and her hires like Kiri Hart wanted to alter Star Wars and Lucasfilm. We will also relay new information about the repercussions of their actions; to the point where even Steven Spielberg, the man who is solely responsible for Kathleen Kennedy having the career she has, walked away. Finally, we’ll recount how Jon Favreau and his friends from Marvel are reporting directly to Bob Iger in their attempts at charting out a new creative vision for Star Wars going forwards.
