New Star Wars trilogy in works
Star Wars is getting a new lease of life with a new set of films.
Disney has confirmed that it's working on a new Star Wars trilogy of films. The trilogy will be the first since the Skywalker saga. A total of nine films, Star Wars wrapped up with the story of Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine in 2019.
Currently, they don’t have much to reveal but that it is in the early stages of development and that it will be written by X-Men producer Simon Kinberg. Simon has previously worked in the Star Wars universe. He is the man behind the fan-favourite animated series Star Wars Rebels.
Reports suggest that Simon Kinberg will also produce the movies alongside Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy.

The new trilogy will begin with a fresh story and is not related to the Skywalker saga. Since the project is in the early stages, they can’t reveal much and don’t have timelines on when this will be ready.
The makers haven’t revealed whether the film will have a new set of numbers or will be in continuation with previous films and be called something like Star Wars 10.
About Star Wars
Star Wars, created by George Lucas, is one of the most successful film franchises of all time. The original trilogy was released from 1977-1983. A new prequel trilogy was launched in the late '90s. It focused on the early years of Vader and how he transformed into the villain from the righteous Jedi knight Anakin Skywalker.
Disney has several other Star Wars projects in the works. The Mandalorian and Grogu, based on the Disney series about a helmeted warrior and his companion, is scheduled for release in theatres in May 2026.
