Forget Star Wars Movies, the Franchise’s Future Belongs to Video Games

Word broke this week that Lucasfilm was reportedly ramping up for Star Wars - Episode X, a direct continuation of the mainline “Skywalker Saga” and the Rey storyline. Simon Kinberg, who worked closely with Lucasfilm in the early days of Episode VII, developed Star Wars Rebels with Dave Filoni, and also wrote several Fox X-Men movies before directing Dark Phoenix, will pen the screenplay. Jon Watts, maker of three Spider-Man movies and the so-so Star Wars TV series Skeleton Crew, will direct. Get excited?
