We’ll have to wait a few years for the next Star Wars movie. According to Variety and The Wrap, Disney has removed the untitled Star Wars movie from its 2026 release lineup and replaced it with Ice Age 6, which is scheduled to be released on December 18 of the same year. thing. It’s not clear which movie it is, but Daisy Ridley announced at last year’s Star Wars Celebration in London that she would be reprising her role as Rey in the new film. The film is directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, who also directed several episodes of Ms. Marvel, and is a direct sequel to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
The new film, set 15 years after the events of the first film, will reportedly center around Rey establishing a new Jedi Academy and building a new Jedi Order. Steven Knight (Peaky Blinders, Angelina Jolie’s Maria) joined the production last year when the original screenwriter was replaced, but he also left the project in October. Lucasfilm’s search for a new screenwriter may have contributed to the film’s delay.
The next Star Wars movie won’t be released until 2026, but movies that are part of the series will still be released in the same year. The Mandalorian and Grogu, a sequel to the Disney+ TV series directed by Jon Favreau, has already begun filming and is scheduled to be released on May 22, 2026. The Wrap also said that it is “confident that the next Star Wars movie is still very much in the making.” “It’s very much in development,” so we hope it doesn’t get canceled like the movie Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and DB Weiss had planned.
