It has been confirmed today that Kevin Feige, the developer of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is going to develop a movie set in the Star Wars universe with Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy.

Alan Horn, the chief creative officer for Disney is quoted as telling THR:


Kevin is the current president of Marvel Studios and has been since its creation in 2007. Kathleen is the current president of Lucasfilms, which she has been since Disney purchased the studio in 2012. The coming together of these two powerhouses of producing will have a lot of people excited at the possibilities of where the Star Wars universe can go.

This news will add another Star Wars movie to the growing list of Star Wars content we are all going to be privileged to see in the next few years. With the development of two new movie trilogies, as well as the Disney+ exclusive content like The Mandelorian and the Obi-Wan Kenobi TV series, not to mention the previously released Star Wars movies and TV shows that will be added to Disney+ when it starts streaming, it will be quicker to visit a galaxy far far away than it would be for Qui-Gon to find out your midi-chlorian count.

Are you excited to see where this goes? Does this make the news of DB Weiss and David Benioff’s Star Wars trilogy easier to take? Let us know in the comments or join our Discord and meet like minded folk.
