New ‘Star Wars’ Movie Trilogy In The Works From ‘X-Men’ Veteran Simon Kinberg

Lucasfilm has reportedly reached a deal with X-Men veteran Simon Kinberg to develop a new Star Wars movie trilogy.

However, this claim was later disputed by The Hollywood Reporter, who indicated that Kinberg’s new films will likely begin a fresh storyline, separate from the Skywalker saga, and introduce new characters to the Star Wars universe. This new trilogy will reportedly join a lineup of Star Wars projects in development, with directors like James Mangold, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, Taika Waititi, and Donald Glover attached. While it’s unclear which of these projects are moving forward or remain in active development, Lucasfilm’s intent appears to be diversifying Star Wars storytelling by branching beyond the Skywalker saga.
