Dave Filoni finally sheds light on Lucasfilm’s Star Wars film strategy

“It concerns history and talent.”

After years of uncertainty and cautious movement forward on the theatrical front, Dave Filoni has finally opened the evolution strategy of Lucasfilm for Star Wars Films and is focused in a refreshing way on the bases of history and narrators.

While Marvel is downsizing and the DC restarts, Star Wars Since then it has been in a strange cinematographic limbo Skywalker’s ascent Hit the theaters. But now, with The Mandalorian and the Gogu AND Daisy RidleyJedi’s orders film led by Rey on site, the momentum is starting to change and strands, now creative director of Lucasfilm, is leading the charge.

A Star Wars Celebration Japan, the comic book met Filoni and when he was asked what the game plan is for Star Wars Movies that went on, Filoni replied:

“I think it is a combination of great stories and great narrators, personally. I think we want people who are enthusiastic about entering, like Shawn Levy, who have an excellent idea and that we want to develop it together so that we can find a way to bring it where it likes, but also to have all the stories we have told.”

Filoni continued to underline that his work is not for the creators of Microgest, but to help them exploit what he does Star Wars feel Star Warswhile letting their voice pass.

“For me, it is only about history and talent, who are the people who guide these and how Lucasfilm can help every creativity to be a little unique.

“We find a way to connect them, but I want all their stories to be unique because they are special narrators to themselves. So this is our deed of balance.”

As for what will really come later? The participants in the celebration have peeked The Mandalorian and the Goguwhich acts as a great return of the franchise in cinemas.

In addition, the Slate of the Star Wars film is filling up, even if there is still a release dates. Shawn Levy it is developing Star Wars: Starfighter with Ryan Gosling Set on Star.

James Mangold The saga is taking up with a film on the origins of the Jedi. Shameen obaid-chinoy He is leading the story of Rey/New Jedi Order. Filoni’s function, set in the new republic era, will eventually tie the threads from The Mandalorian, AhsokaAnd other shows.

In addition, projects from Taika Waititi AND Simon Kinberg They are still cooking, even if the details for those have not been shared.

I like that Lucasfilm is not trying to force a cinematographic universe shared as much as he is trying to cultivate something that seems organic. It is a question of letting the only filmmakers bring their franchise viewing and the trust that the strength (and strands) will allow them to tell great stories.
