Three New Star Wars Movies Rumored to be getting announced  at this years Star Wars Celebration, which takes place in London on April 7th, according to rumours.

Lucasfilm has been away from the theatrical since the disappointing last movie late in 2019, Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker.

Lucasfilm has been a bit of a sham recently with reports that Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson had left the 2025 Star Wars movie that they were writing together and that the  Star Wars script was not good with conflict between the writers, director and Kathleen Kennedy (again).

The new stories coming out are firstly, the next film will be directed by Ms. Marvel's Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy and  is slated to start production in February 2024 and aimed as being a December 19, 2025 release and Disney are being "very careful" in picking the next Star Wars director, writer,etc. and want to make sure that it is he right one.

Above the Line's  - Jeff Sneider also clarified further on Twitter, explaining that Obaid-Chinoy is still in line to direct the film and that it will be Lucasfilm's next Star Wars movie. The big thing is, Sneider mentioned the movie currently in development is under the control of director Sharmeed Obaid-Chinoy and could be a decider for Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy and if a Star Wars movie is not released by December 25, 2025, Kennedy would no longer continue running Lucasfilm, basically, If there’s no movie on Christmas Day 2025, there’s no job for her.

The second Star Wars film, is set to released in December 2027. Taika Waititi, was announced to be writing and directing a Star Wars movie, its possible that Waititi’s film will be a 2027 release date, meaning the film would have been in development for seven years.

The third film being developed is by Shawn Levy and is reported that he was getting to work on his own Star Wars film, with the director later confirming the reports on Twitter and in various interviews. Levy reported he won’t start work until Deadpool 3, has been released & will probably start work, 2024 or 2025, with a possible 2027 but more likely a December 2029, if the current release pattern is followed.
