Here are the Star Wars projects that are closest to becoming a reality (or at least appear to be) at the moment:

Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures Season 2 (August 2/August 14, 2024)

The kids cartoon Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures gets a second season, debuting on Disney+ and Disney Jr. on August 14. The second half of the season will hit in early 2025. A series of shorts from the season will also debut August 2.

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew TV Series (2024)

Previously operating under the working title of “Grammar Rodeo,” Star Wars Skeleton Crew comes from Spider-Man: No Way Home director Jon Watts. “The show takes place during the post–Return of the Jedi reconstruction that follows the fall of the Empire, the same as The Mandalorian,” reports Vanity Fair. “A casting notice has called for four children, around 11 to 12 years old,” the outlet adds. “Inside Lucasfilm, the show is being described as a galactic version of classic Amblin coming-of-age adventure films of the ’80s.”

It was announced at Star Wars Celebration 2022 that Jude Law will star in the series.

Star Wars: Andor Season 2 (2025/Possibly 2024)

Diego Luna’s rebel spy Cassian Andor will return for a second season of his prequel story. Filming began in November 2022, right as Season 1 was ending its run on Disney+. Production on the season was halted due to the Hollywood strikes, but hopefully things are back on track now.

Star Wars: Ahsoka Season 2 (In Development)

When Ahsoka: Season 1 ended on a cliffhanger, it was unclear whether those loose ends would be picked up in a second season or feed directly into Dave Filoni’s Mando-verse movie. But now Lucasfilm has now confirmed Ahsoka: Season 2. There’s no release window yet, though the series likely won’t return before late 2025 at the soonest.

The Mandalorian & Grogu Movie (May 22, 2026)

Lucasfilm turned heads with the announcement of a Mandalorian spinoff movie separate from Filoni’s Mando-Verse New Republic crossover film. Dubbed The Mandalorian & Grogu, this film will be helmed by The Mandalorian co-creator Jon Favreau. It’s assumed the movie is taking the place of The Mandalorian: Season 4.

Production is slated to begin in 2024, meaning this could wind up being the first Star Wars project to hit the big screen since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker. That’s backed up by the fact that Disney recently revealed a May 22, 2026 release date.

Taika Waititi’s Star Wars Movie (In Development)

Disney has confirmed that Thor: Ragnarok’s Taika Waititi has been tapped to direct a live-action Star Wars movie. Waititi is also co-writing the film alongside 1917’s Krysty Wilson-Cairns. Nothing else is known about the film yet, including when it’s set in the Star Wars timeline or what release date it’ll end up claiming. In 2021 Waititi revealed he’s cracked the story for his movie, but the actual script is still in its early stages. In May, 2022, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy said that this would be the next Star Wars film released. Finally, in March, 2023, Variety reported that this could be the project that snaps up the currently empty December, 2025, release date on Lucasfilm’s slate.

James Mangold’s Dawn of the Jedi Movie (In Development)

At Star Wars Celebration 2023, we learned that Logan director James Mangold is directing a movie about the very first Jedi Knights. Little is known about the movie, other than that it’s set roughly 25,000 years before the other films and will be “Biblical” in scope.

Dave Filoni’s Mando-Verse New Republic Movie (In Development)

Dave Filoni will make the jump from Star Wars shows to the big screen. Filoni is directing a movie set after the events of Return of the Jedi. The film is said to tie together shows like The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka.

Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy’s New Jedi Order Movie (In Development)

Ms. Marvel’s Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy is directing the first Star Wars film set after the events of The Rise of Skywalker. Daisy Ridley will return to reprise the role of Rey Skywalker, with the film focusing on Rey’s efforts to rebuild the Jedi 15 years after the final battle with Emperor Palpatine. It’s expected that other actors from the Sequel Trilogy will also return.

Originally, Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson were attached to write the film. However, both have now left the project, with Steven Knight stepping in.

Star Wars: Rogue Squadron (Status Unknown)

Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins was given the reins of a Star Wars theatrical film, which was originally slated to hit theaters in Christmas of 2023. Kathleen Kennedy teased, “This story will introduce a new generation of starfighter pilots as they earn their wings and risk their lives in a boundary-pushing, high-speed thrill ride. The legend of Rogue Squadron has been long beloved by Star Wars fans, and will move us into a future era of the galaxy.”

However, as of November 2021 the film was no longer on the production schedule while Jenkins reportedly focused on Wonder Woman 3 (which has since been cancelled). Industry insider Matthew Belloni reported the film was the latest in a long line of Star Wars projects hampered by “creative differences.” And in March of 2023, Variety reported that a source has stated that the film is no longer in active development. In April of that year, Kennedy told IGN the following: “Rogue Squadron, that definitely is something that we still talk about. Whether it’s a movie, or whether it ends up being in the series space, that’s definitely something.”

The Mandalorian: Season 4 / The Book of Boba Fett: Season 2 (Status Unknown)

There’s currently no word on a fourth season of The Mandalorian or a second season of The Book of Boba Fett. The announcement of The Mandalorian & Grogu may mean the former series has ended its small-screen run, and we’re not holding our breath for more The Book of Boba Fett at this point.

Star Wars: Lando Movie (Status Unknown)

While Lucasfilm seems to have no plans for a sequel to 2018’s Solo: A Star Wars Story, Donald Glover’s Lando Calrissian was supposed to get his own live-action series at one point. The project was announced in December 2020, and was being developed by Dear White People’s Justin Simien. However, Simien eventually departed the project, with Glover and his brother Stephen Glover taking over as writers. And in the fall of 2023 Stephen revealed that Lando is now expected to take shape as a movie rather than a show.

Amidst a series of major delays at Disney, the release dates for the next three Star Wars movies now stand at May 22, 2026, December 18, 2026 and December 17, 2027. We don’t yet know which dates correspond to which announced films. After a long drought with no new films, fans will be treated to three Star Wars movies over the course of two years. That’s assuming, of course, that these release dates don’t shuffle again.

Lucasfilm has also said there are several unannounced films in development. What could they be? Only time… and the Force… will tell.
