FRIDAY, AUGUST 16

OBI-WAN KENOBI---multiple sources confirm that Ewan McGregor is in negotiations to star in a Disney+ live-action tv series featuring Obi-Wan Kenobi. One source said the series will be a six-part miniseries.
Also, Disney+ announced it has cancelled the STAR WARS RESISTANCE animated tv series with the upcoming Season 2 being the last season.





STAR WARS---Rian Johnson said his movie trilogy will not include legacy charcters, “I think that the fun and challenging part of it is to dive in, figure out what’s exciting and then figure out what it’s going to be. We’re doing something that steps beyond the legacy characters. What does that look like? To me, the blue sky element of it is what was most striking about it. I know the way that I’m coming at it and what’s fun about it for everyone in George Lucas’ films is figuring out, ‘what’s the next step?’ It really makes you think and figure out what the essence of Star Wars is for me and what that will look like moving forward.”

Re: Star Wars- Why is Rian Johnson still associated with Star Wars and Disney? He must be Kathleen Kennedy's favorite submissives.

That's such a weird premise and I want to be able to like it, but reading further about it, I see Mike Arnold, from that awful "Archer" animated series, is heavily involved.

As with all things... gimme the bluray. smile

Neil Blomkamp should get involved in this realm... and maybe he could actually find himself still onboard after X period of time! (re.: Robocop material news from yore)

Neil B has been batted out of Alien and Robocop projects over and over again.
He should stay well clear of this stuff and move on to original projects like he used to make.

Now that Disney owns FOX all I hear in the pipeline are remakes of Home Alone and Die Hard.
But I can't blame them anymore. Lion King, which "nobody" wanted or liked made over a billion dollars in one week! This falls directly on the masses for apathy.
