As the franchise continues to expand, new titles are also teased during the Star Wars Celebration where Kathleen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm, confirmed that there are three upcoming Star Wars movies under development.
The three new films will be helmed by Dave Filoni, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, and James Mangold. The unnamed Taika Waititi film is still on the slate of the franchise, too, but unfortunately, that wasn't the case for Rian Johnson's.
Other than the movies, the franchise is also expanding the narrative through the announcement of new seasons of existing shows and new series titles that are about to arrive in a few years.
See Star Wars: Return of the Jedi in theaters once more on April 28 to May 4, and perfectly celebrate Star Wars Day on May the Fourth with the movie!
