Assuming Disney stays out of their way this has potential. We might finally get a second Star Wars show that's actually good after Andor.

If it gets popular at all then Kathleen Kennedy will want more control and ruin it. That's basically the cycle for anything Star Wars.

Wasn't she fired?

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I've seen rumors, but nothing confirming. Her contract will be over next year if it doesn't get extended again. I honestly think getting rid of her could do to Lucasfilm what firing Steve Ballmer did for Microsoft. Get rid of the legacy that is trying to force what they want the consumer to buy and instead bring in new talent that will make what the market actually wants.
