What the Star Wars movie starring Daisy Ridley will be about
According to Variety, the film will pick up the story after the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) and will follow Rey’s efforts to open her own Jedi Academy. However, with this setback, the film is unlikely to enter production until the second half of 2025 at the earliest.
The film is still scheduled to be the directorial debut of Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoywho directed episodes of the series Disney+ Ms. Marveland received two Oscars for Best Documentary Short Film.
There are no Star Wars movies scheduled to be released until The Mandalorian and Grogu of Jon Favreau in May 2026, which, if it arrives in time, will end a seven-year gap. There are believed to be several more in development, including those of the directors Taika Waititi, Donald Glover, Patty Jenkins, Rian Johnson and James Mangold.
