30 May – Producer Kathleen Kennedy recently revealed that the upcoming Taika Waititi Star Wars film will be the next project to be released in theatres. The Lucasfilm President, who appeared at the Star Wars Celebration panel recently, stated that the Waititi project is aimed for a 2023 release. "Not 2023, but late 2023. We haven't locked anything yet," she said.
It was back in 2020 that the New Zealand director was announced to be directing a mystery Star Wars film, following the success of Marvel's "Thor: Ragnarok" in 2017. The director first showed off his Star Wars knowledge by directing the finale of season 1 of "The Mandalorian".
