This week’s news is loaded with discussion about newly announced Star Wars movies and series coming to Disney+ from the Disney Investor Day.
We had recorded an entire episode of news and even discussed reports that the Cassian Andor series had started filming and that the Kenobi series was about to start filming. Then it happened. The Walt Disney Company’s Investor Day Event announced everything that was coming to Star Wars in the next few years. We were so excited that for the first time ever, we went back and recorded an addition to our weekly news segment. The result is that you get a bonus size episode of the news as we discuss the new Star Wars movies and series making their way to Disney+ over the next few years.
On this fully armed and operational episode, we discuss:
- The breaking news from the Walt Disney Company Investor Day presentation,
- Patty Jenkings directing a new Star Wars movie,
- The confirmation of Hayden Christiansen returning to Star Wars,
- Updates on the filming of the Andor series,
- New animated television offerings,
- Two new live action series under the guidance of Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau,
- Book updates for The High Republic,
- The 50th anniversary of Lucasfilm,
- A LEGO Star Wars holiday contest, and
- Knights of the Old Republic 2 arriving on mobile platforms
