Will 2,215 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Will the Skywalker Saga Extend Past ‘Star Wars: Episode 9’? Kathleen Kennedy: Quote I certainly foresee movies past nine. Whether or not we carry on the Skywalker saga… you know, George always intended nine movies, and whether we continue that or not is something we’re talking about right now. If the story warrants it, we’ll absolutely do it. If it actually inspires new ideas, then we’ll probably head in that direction. We just don’t know yet. I would be shocked if there wasn't at least one more saga trilogy, but it is nice that at least for now Kennedy is very cognizant of the fact that George Lucas only ever wanted one more trilogy after ROTJ.

Nick1Ø66 4,714 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Well, George changed his tune over the years several time on how many movies he actually "originally" envisioned....at some point nine, at some point even twelve, until finally deciding it was six he wanted all along, insisting it was Anakin Skywalker's story, and the story ended with him. This stuff that Lucas always saw Star Wars as nine films is rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, he certainly changed how many films he wanted over time, but he never wanted more than one trilogy after the Emperor's death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo 3,709 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 If they make a sequel sequel trilogy then I'd like for them to wait a decent amount of time before making them. Not stop making Star Wars films (please continue with standalones once a year) but just give it awhile before going back into the saga to make it more of an event. I would love to see them do an Old Republic trilogy with a film every two years and a standalonebin between and just do something a bit different in the universe for awhile.

Yeah, Making Star Wars did report this in 2013 (http://makingstarwars.net/2013/12/the-star-wars-spin-offs-could-culminate-in-an-avengers-style-seven-samurai-film/): Quote Remember those rumors that Zack Synder was making a Seven Samurai film set in the Star Wars galaxy with Jedi? When that rumor broke, I approached some friends and was told it probably was not happening. I was told it was just a meeting as far as they had heard, and the concept was real but the Jedi part was news to them. Finally, I was told such a film was probably on the table and was one of Lucas’ ideas he handed over to Kathleen Kennedy when she took over Lucasfilm. That was it. The rumor died and went cold. The point is, I might have got a little morsel of information in all of that. We learned Lucas has turned over ten or eleven outlined ideas for films that Kennedy will see turned into Star Wars films. It appears the Seven Samurai in Space concept is one of those films. Who knows if they will use Lucas’ concepts or not. This was the site's infancy I believe so their sources may not have been as strong as they are now, but in any case this does seem like a logical thing to do once we get into the late 2020s, or 2030s. It would stink if it had to be non-canonical (hard to say if they could make the convergence of a bunch of previous major characters plausible), but I'm sure it would actually be really awesome. I used to cringe at the idea, but I don't anymore. Particularly if it was actually one of Lucas' ideas anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John 2,032 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 The purpose behind TFA wasn't to further the Star Wars timeline beyond ROTJ. It was meant from the start to be a total nostalgia trip and reintroduce people to what made Star Wars so great in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I especially like Finn because he has such great chemistry with both Rey and Poe, separately. Eventually it'd be nice for Rey and Poe to meet, actually.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 One of The Force Awakens' strengths was certainly its characters and the possible dynamics it sets up. I walked out of the cinema eagerly anticipating how their story would continue. I haven't felt that way about characters in a film franchise in a long time.
