I’m Shocked… Star Wars Rey Movie News is ACTUALLY GOOD?!

[@saltytexasranger6301]

I'll remember all of this when they announce that he left the project due to irreconcilable differences in two months...

[@ceemichel]

All this said, Disney should definitely make a new trilogy of stories of Luke, Leia, Han and Chewie during the post Episode VI period, but audiences will have to accept that the roles will have to be recast with new actors

[@jamesjukebox2386]

It's scrapped!

[@buck342443]

We don't need a Rey movie, Disney should just move on from the sequel trilogy already.

[@isaacrebellion9893]

I agree.

[@hakimzane]

Facts

[@alexkoronec4326]

This is probably not going to happen as long as Kathleen Kennedy is involved 😅

[@WillCole117]

Sounds like they are moving on right into episode 10

[@thefightoffaith]

Well they're gonna have to touch it at some point, what in like a thousand years they won't have done any other sequel stuff? That whatchyawant?

[@thestanleys3657]

"good is point of view Anakin"- Palpatine 1:30 sounds like "I'll write what im told to write"

[@Rockmankb]

I appreciate you attempting to be positive, but the issue is that the director has final say and we’ve already seen what the director of the Rey movie wants to prioritize and it isn’t the “George Lucas-ness” of it all

[@CaptShriver]

keep DEI in Star Wars it will fail every time. hire based on meritt and star wars will rise from the ashes i believe. if you go woke you go broke

[@alexkoronec4326]

Remember, this all has gotten to go past Kathleen Kennedy fantasy land and her stooges

[@venkateshg3171]

We were so excited with Rian Johnson before episode 8, look at what happened!

[@hehu4025]

I don't trust and have no faith in Disney and I will go to see a movie about Rey on one condition. This symbol of literal failure of sequels must end like Luke or Han. I want to see her die and I don't want to see her character suddenly make sense because it's too late. Then and only then will give the hyena my money.

[@ricklipa2024]

First, I do not trust what anyone working for Lucasfilm says. They could have good intentions but ultimately, the higher ups can and will control things and not for the better. Second, any film involving Rey would not honor George Lucas, because Rey and the whole sequel trilogy for that matter, does not honor George Lucas. The only way to honor Lucas is for Disney/Lucasfilm to stop making films that take place post ROTJ, or even better they should stop making Star Wars films and shows altogether. However, none that will ever happen.

[@timidwolf]

The only good news there could ever be about this movie is it's cancelation.

[@isaackim7675]

They should bring in the director who made Transformers One for a Star Wars project. He did a good job in understanding the lore

[@CaptShriver]

i agree 100000000000%

[@isaackim7675]

@ Bada$$atron!

[@isaiasherrero7889]

Fr that movie is massively underrated.

[@denisrivarola2387]

Only good news would be this crap cancelled and retconed

[@wigglemd]

Thanks Meg! Here's where the Fun Begins 😀

[@isaacrebellion9893]

If KK leaving lucasfilm soon, It could be interest that new animated series like Commander Cody's Journey will bring Edmon Rampart back from his death in the bad batch finale for his redemption.

[@jangoclone]

They said the same thing for the Sequel trilogy..

[@MezAryada]

We’ll see ! I still believe they can do better. It’s Up to them…

[@YayoHernandez-b1j]

See I told you we need her back in Star Wars. She wants to come back. We should just accept it and that’s final OK

[@____uncompetative]

I assumed she would retire in 2019 after receiving the Irvin G. Thalberg Memorial Award, but it seems that they have struggled to find a replacement. Dave Filoni lacked experience with live action. Something which has since been remedied since working on _The Mandalorian, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ahsoka, Skeleton Crew_ and the upcoming The Mandalorian & Grogu which as it is scheduled to release in the US on 22nd May 2026 we may see a continuation of the _status quo_ until he is free to take over the role of President of Lucasfilm that July. Kennedy will be 73 years old by then, so I doubt she will be renewing her contract beyond then.

[@neofulcrum5013]

The Bourne Ultimatum was a good film so I hope this is a good sign

[@RaveyTeamLarge]

Wohooo no jibba jabba here, all great stuff

[@mcleigh66]

Huzzah for the Saturn Awards! I'm in the camp that believes that Dawson did a great job translating the character to live action, and I'm delighted to see her honored; and of course, I cheered when I saw the Bad Batch honored, as well. Both well deserved.

[@nichlaschristensson1055]

Everyone that get they let go, that was involved in the sequels is a plus. Kathleen is probably already on the way. I say this not only based on the rewards she is getting. But mostly about all things happening around the time she sold her house, and the fact that we never got a confirmation about if her contract was renewed last year

[@dr.blobberblobbarian7879]

Disney needs to give Star Wars back to George…. Its pointless. They destroyed the brand. No one cares anymore

[@mikes2821]

They gave George 4 billion for Star Wars. They'll never "give" it back.

[@kevinjamesedwards]

I think calling this "good news" is a bit of a stretch. He basically regurgitated the same lines that every one of the previous charlatans who destroyed Star Wars and Lucasfilm have repeated.

[@pritikinaa]

I don't want to see Rey start up the Jedi order. That was Luke's birthright. Rey is nothing but an invasive species.

[@ernstfrutphlinguhr2494]

Luke failed.

[@AndrewVillers]

So many NDA’s, they can’t say anything = good news

[@gramthefan1.051]

I have to say I will miss the shows if this is the end of that, but hoping for better things in the future.

[@anthonybf2]

The only possible good news is that the movie is cancelled and KK is fired.

[@SamIAm-242]

I loved Ahsoka and watched it multiple times. After her therapy/training with Anakin in the World Between Worlds, the happier, more lighthearted Ahsoka came out. I thought this show was awesome and the villains were so good. Can’t wait for the next season.

[@michaeltlyda2843]

A great video! The next Acolyte movie can start where it ended and begin a fresh chapter in the franchise.

[@BritishRedCoat2025]

I honestly hope that it is, as Daisy deserves something better than she had before. It's possible, as shown by Skeleton Crew, that it could happen - provided that the politics are pushed into the background and a coherent plot is written.

[@untoldstarwarstales]

A Rey movie like Andor? That is my worst freaking nightmare. NO god please no! Noooooooooooo!

[@thefightoffaith]

What's wrong with that?

[@javierlopez9789]

​@@thefightoffaith that rey isnt andor

[@semperterra3235]

07:40 - Actually in the Star Wars universe you can stop the suns setting, you just get a Death Star to remove the entire planet. No planet means no sunset!

[@OrionInSpace]

George Nolfi did The Adjustment Bureau which if anybody hasn’t seen yet I highly recommend you do, it’s an underrated film. A movie that is steeped within some allegories of social commentary that was well executed at the time it came out. If Nolfi takes the approach of something like Andor and incorporates it to the style of Lucas’s films I think that would be good.

[@Tyler-vu8yr]

While I’m grateful that we at least got a lot of Star Wars content in the last decade, I think the quality in some projects were lacking because Disney was focused on getting as much content out there as possible. Market saturation is probably the biggest factor in some of Star Wars shortcomings. Hopefully things slow down going forward so each project has time to make sure quality is going into it.

[@DaleESkywalker]

It's about time fans realized Lucasfilm would've made a few mistakes before getting on track. George didn't want to guide the ship after he sold the company to them, so there shouldn't be expectations to keep it perfect. He's either into everything or he's all the way out. There's no in between for him. He still would've done unexpected things if he did, but it'll be hard to get these fans to forgive LFL.

[@patrickfrazier5740]

I'm confused, so George Nolfi is writing the new movie provisionally called the New Jedi Order, but Simon kinberg is writing a new trilogy that takes place after episode 9? I thought this new Jedi Order movie was the first installment of the "new trilogy." So, they're doing a new movie to kill off the Rey character so they can move onto the new trilogy?

[@dianesinger9729]

Yes happy about the Saturn awards

[@serajardakani6034]

Where is the 1st real trailer for Andor Season 2??? past series have already had their 1st trailer by now?

[@Lemure_Noah]

"Somehow, Rey is back..." 😢

[@colbyrodgers1040]

With this news, I’m hopeful we as fans of this franchise can begin to heal.

[@Makaveli_74]

4:28 too little too late

[@kortniechanGaming]

this info about rey movie is actually reasuring , but i hope the plot is not to heavy on the jedi stuff, they have gone way to hard on the jedi stuff i think thats why most people didnt care to watch acolyte. thats also my complaint with sequils they are leaning to hard into force stuff. weve gotten alot of that from skywalker saga. we need more of the rest of the galaxy. thats why mando was such a hit.

[@scottbaldry74]

Unless the sequels are multiversed away, they are not something I want the story to journey through, no matter how good something is after them.

[@lisaduffy821]

✊🏿✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿✊🏽✊🏾

[@anthonybf2]

🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮💩💩💩🗑️🗑️🗑️

[@fireman_spock669]

They had an entire trilogy to make fans give a crap about Rey. The fact they think they can still make it work is mind blowing. Daisy Ridley is very talented, and I enjoyed seeing her other work. But I’ll never spend my money on anything involving the sequel trilogy.

[@rangerone8813]

Nothing that follows the STD+ in the timeline should ever be produced. Even if it’s good, which is highly unlikely, it would only confirm that the STD+ is the new canon, and the STD+ should never be considered canon.

[@Deuteromis]

1) I'll believe it when I see actual photos of them shooting scenes. 2) Him signing a NDA is not a good sign. 3) My reaction to all this is 'meh' Luke should have rebuilt the Jedi order, not Mary Rey Sue.

[@DG-ov3ee]

If Kathleen Kennedy cared about what the fans wanted, we would not be in this situation; she's never leaving.

[@BigDavos]

Why cant we just get the andor/ rogue one team to just make star wars movies, I mean they make the best modern star wars EASY

[@MS-gp8zd]

Please make it a Jedi vs Sith war. Get rid of the dumb rule of 2. Fans would go nuts for good Sith villains.

[@carlcwms]

Give us a Finn movie and Rey can appear in part of it.

[@dawnkladerman598]

Utidiiiiiii 🎉😮❤

[@travisjohnson622]

Content creator is, "Marked today as a paid shill. A true disney employee on the payroll."

[@14bface]

George nolfi might get it. But anything sequels and Rey related is not bringing the fandom back

[@brendanhiggins3442]

Ridiculous director is just a turnoff knowing she's involved.

[@alexdeatcu8426]

"Shut up Meg"!Sorry, could not help myself! :))GG!

[@YayoHernandez-b1j]

So tell me is there hope in the future in the near future that the TV series the acolyte can you come back yes or no that’s all we want. Hope there’s always hope for everything.

[@JasonJelinek]

He just has to be better than Kennedy...how long do they let her ruin our favorites?

[@pcb462]

I can’t wait to see this addition to Star Wars cannon. We just need to ignore the misogynist fanbase. May the force be with Star Wars fans!

[@javierlopez9789]

Must be awesome making money out of brainless vegetables like you

[@mosfet74]

TV series are way more exciting to me. Movies are too short. I feel like it's a dying form media.

[@ceemichel]

People who were kids during the original trilogy want to see those characters. They don't understand that the Rey movies were made for today's kids. Before you want to Sh*t on Disney, remember that it was Lucas who waited too long to make the sequels with Luke, Leia and Han as main characters and the actors were too old to play the characters as they would have been in the timeline, so they were faced with the decision to either recast younger actors in those roles or create new characters and find a way to integrate the original characters into the story.

[@ceemichel]

Not making a Rey sequel while Daisy Ridley is still the right age to play that character would be a repeat of the mistakes made when Lucasfilm focused on Episode I to III while the OT actors grew to old to play those parts

[@javierlopez9789]

People who were kids during the sequel trilogy dont care about star wars in the first place.

[@patandthecats5983]

The only good news i want about the Rey movie is that it's canceled permanently.

[@artiemedley9369]

I'll be generous and just blame apathy, rather than calling people what I see them as. Do you see some of your commenters poo-pooing your positivity? Unnecessary and, frankly, uncalled for. You may dismiss it as just being jaded, but you're being even-keeled bringing us the negatives and the positives, and the positives are just that...positive. True fans would welcome change. I don't want to go on a rant again. I loved Ahsoka being stoic. Just like I pictured a 50 or 60 year old Obi-Wan would be. Stoic, with the ability to still bring the noise. She was/is a truly gifted lightsaber user. Her stoicism in Rebels was while she was still processing the fall of Anakin, with that potentially adding maybe a little guilt to her persona. Her stoicism in her own show is probably due to her being the senior-most "Jedi" in existence, if Mace is, in fact, no longer with us. Plus, she had a hard-headed pupil that she felt she could've taught better. Good Jedi are very good at introspection and calming themselves. Keep up the great work, Meg!

[@Carrie449-xyz]

I dunno, maybe it’s four news, it’s a bit dodgy. I’ll only believe it what I see it.

[@wadewilson524]

The only good news for the Rey movie would be “Permanently Cancelled”.

[@rjphilla]

That Director has ZERO business directing a Star Wars movie. She does documentaries based on the oppression of women from where she grew up. How TF does that give her the skills to direct a Star Wars movie? Also, this Rey movie will most likely never be made. Hopefully. We can all hope. Please stop and never make this movie. Ever.

[@Carrie449-xyz]

Hmmmm, interesting.

[@sgtpointeblank]

Its not good news, because it's actually happening lol Just what we need is more politics from Disney.

[@badarsehero]

Why can’t they just stay away from Skywalker saga!! In my opinion they should have stop at 6 and made the other trilogy something totally new!! Cause 7-8-9 were totally wank i say but that my personal opinion.

[@simonseymour3099]

The only one who can save star wars is George Lucas

[@hakimzane]

Just move away from the sequel stuff. It was so divisive that SW needs something new and fresh. I like Daisy, but Rey is not the way. The sequels left a bad taste in the mouth of MANY! Also, does Disney own the Saturn Awards 😂?

[@davidlongoria6304]

Disney will not let ray go , even though no one's cares about the Character , look what they done on the new cruse ship they just came out with called the Treasure , they have ray Teaching kids how to use the force, What a joke !!

[@untoldstarwarstales]

Good? So I'm expecting its canceled. Lets see what the video says! XD

[@Mark-ud2wf]

I have no faith in Lucasfilm anymore

[@ernstfrutphlinguhr2494]

I see that the channel fandom is going back into whining mode.

[@gryce9077]

They need to free the sequel characters from the JJRianverse. Kylo needs an origin story, Rey needs some semblance of a character and a reason to exist, and we need to know what really happened with the OG characters after ROTJ.

[@javierlopez9789]

Who cares about crylo origin, he is dead.

[@tonbopro]

end the DEI

[@richardbradley2802]

Another roll of the dice...at least this time we have, perhaps, some reason to hope?

[@mwmsjuly19]

It will not be good.

[@MusicMike939]

Daisy is pretty, but she can't act. Swimming girl movie was ok, but it didn't call for her to act. No acting in any Star Wars

[@adrialwrecker]

The New Star Wars Animated Projects could be very awesome like Star Wars The Bad Batch was and there could be more different surviving Jedi and other Star Wars Legends in it too.

[@BillyBatsonMarvel]

Awesome news. Put that final nail in the Star Wars coffin.

[@Lazlowzky]

Holy shit! Everyone, watch this new Star Wars fan film. It's beyond a masterpiece! Star Wars: Darth Vader's Journey to Redemption at Padme's Tomb

[@tomlichnofsky.7048]

👋🙂👋🇨🇦

[@ScyllaWyrm]

Daisy is a fine actress and I hope she and her character can get some redemption from the mediocre Abrams/Johnson cabinet of curiosities. If her character is going to be the lead in a more Andor-esque world and story I'd really welcome it.

[@davidcano6835]

Please, your voice is so boring and robotic. Please use your regular voice? I Luke your stuff but the has got to go!

[@thestorm99]

If you didn’t watch Rebels and, therefore, don’t know how things got to the point where the Ahsoka series begins, then I can understand why someone wouldn’t like it. But, otherwise, it is… by far… the most “Star Wars” thing Disney has done. Andor is great, but it doesn’t have any of the things that make Star Wars feel the way it does. I’ve watched the entire series in one sitting six times and it never gets old. I can’t wait for season two. And I hope it continues on as films after that.

[@charlesbryant870]

Days Of Future Past is the best X-Men movie.

[@scottshadbolt902]

Disney needs to stop forcing the sequel crap down our throats and get a clue! Nobody wants a Rey movie!

[@R4D4_]

He can say anything he wants, but as long as an activist has been cast as director, it means absolutely nothing.

[@JackTFarmer]

I'm really glad Nolfi understands the appeal of Star Wars. It is both the fantastic Sci-fi and the politics that gave the story it's importance. But it takes a quality of understanding and writing to bring it all together into a movie or show. Sadly Headland lacked the writing quality and her politics were too ham-fisted, not re-energizing, but destroying lore in the process. My hope is they give Rey the character progression she was robbed off.

[@goddessomai9177]

Filoni and the Mando was fantastic. However he needs to realize that 6 to 8 episode released every 2 to 4 years is the definition of stupid. He forgot to strike while the hammer is hot and ignored the clients us subscribers wants and desires. He needs to be kicked back to short animation or just fired because his ideas of Star wars are the polar opposites of what the paying viewers are.

[@joeycarter8846]

It would be great to focus on quality over explosions. I loved the early Mandalorian, Kenobi, Boba, & Andor episodes due to their quality & following the main characters on their challenges & quests. Once they got all complicated, chaotic, & a 100 different characters & subplots, they lost me. Andor had a great plotline throughout (except for him being a casual murderer). Do the protagonists really have to kill so many people to be effective? Nolfi sounds like a good addition. The other new guy (X-Men/Marvel guy?) brought more chaos to the films; that's a bad sign.

[@JosephGillen]

I don't want a Rey movie because I think the stain of the sequels just can't be washed out. That being said, the Rey character had great promise and Daisy Ridley is very good. If they can maybe do a mini retcon and take some of the Mary Sueness out of the character, it may be ok.

[@MidnightBlackandVictoria]

They said the same thing about the trashy trilogy they did a couple years ago as well, so it would be very safe to keep your expectations in check- Even if this writer WANTS to honor traditional star wars, its got to get through a mountain of CEO activists with Kennedy at the top of that pile, and if they have a talent for anything, its desecrating the lore of existing franchises....

[@maxo.9928]

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. And yeah, Kennedy needs to give it up already. She's headed the worst rated projects in the franchise over the last 15 years.

[@StarWarsSanta]

I'm personally extremely hyped for more Sequel era content! I hope that we get some production dates for filming the "New Jedi Order" / Rey movie at Celebration. And I suspect we might get a new director for it. Either way, I can't wait!!

[@Zakk_Zero]

I love Star Wars despite it's flaws and polarizing aspects. I for one was excited when Disney and it's resources entered the scene, and I still hold out hope for them to right the ship. While I'll always be anxious to see new SW content, I am so tired of Disney talking about any project, big screen and small, before principle photography is well under way. How about Disney practice it's own policy and slap an NDA on itself. I know that without question more SW will come out, but I won't buy one damn inch of info released by Disney until I'm seeing a trailer. Their severely flawed attempts at building hype and excitement through "updates" only to let us down with changes and cancellations has many if not most fans burnt out. I'm OK with social media talking about unofficial and unconfirmed rumors and theories, but I'm so tired of the yes-then-no, this-director-no-now-that director, project-announced-project-now-cancelled mind-boggling zig-zagging communications. Rey and the New Jedi Order movie would be great to see, but it's not happening until we start seeing production stills. Right now, Episode X is titled "NO Hope: Not Gonna Happen". I'm not wrong until Disney stops talking & shifting gears and starts actual filming.

[@CaptShriver]

remove dei out of star wars including & especially in the writers room then STAR WARS has a huge chance to recover. start hiring based on talent and writers who care about excellent story telling and writers that keep politics and AGENDA out of STAR WARS
