इस एपिसोड के बारे में
Simon Kinberg is writing a new Star Wars trilogy, and Jon Watts is attached to direct the first film. It picks the Skywalker saga back up after The Rise of Skywalker, with Daisy Ridley's Rey expected back in a smaller role.
Lucasfilm is reopening the Skywalker saga for what would be Episode X, and I walk through the reporting from The Hollywood Reporter and Knight Edge Media. Rey is reportedly stepping back for new male and female leads, while her standalone movie sits on hold again after several writers. Kinberg co-created Star Wars Rebels and Watts co-created Skeleton Crew, so I look at what each brings to a trilogy that has to follow the messiest stretch of the franchise, and whether this is finally the story Rey deserved.

Simon Kinberg is writing the trilogy, and Jon Watts, director of the three Tom Holland Spider-Man movies, is attached to direct the first film.
The trilogy continues the Skywalker saga with new male and female leads, and Rey is expected back in a smaller role.
Rey's standalone movie is on hold again, which makes this trilogy the likeliest place to see her next.
Kinberg's work on Rebels and Watts' work on Skeleton Crew are the reason I'm cautiously optimistic.
"The sequel trilogy was such a mess, and it's a shame because there's so many brilliant elements. It's just not woven together well at all." Frank
"Let's be honest, I'm a sucker for Star Wars. I'm gonna watch all of them." Frank
"A character I feel like was very cool, but deserved good writers in a proper story that didn't reinvent every movie." Frank, on Rey

Should Rey carry Episode X, or hand the saga over to the new leads?Does Skeleton Crew make you trust Jon Watts with a Skywalker movie?
