Fans of the Star Wars franchise have been eagerly awaiting news about Rian Johnson's planned trilogy, and the director has finally broken his silence. In a recent interview, Johnson provided an update on the much-anticipated project, though details remain under wraps.
What We Know So Far
Johnson, best known for directing Star Wars: The Last Jedi, confirmed that his trilogy is still in development. While he didn't reveal specific plot points, he assured fans that Lucasfilm remains committed to the project. "It's still very much alive," Johnson stated, hinting at ongoing creative discussions.
Why the Delay?
The trilogy was first announced in 2017, but progress has been slow due to Johnson's other commitments, including the critically acclaimed Knives Out series. Additionally, Disney's shifting priorities with the Star Wars universe have contributed to the delay.
Fan Reactions
The update has sparked mixed reactions among fans. While some are thrilled to hear the project hasn't been shelved, others remain skeptical given the lack of concrete details. "I just hope it doesn't get lost in development hell," one fan tweeted.
What’s Next?
With no official release date in sight, fans will have to stay patient. Johnson’s focus on original storytelling suggests his trilogy could bring a fresh perspective to the Star Wars saga. For now, all eyes remain on Lucasfilm for further announcements.
