Basically:

Mangold - Episode 0 - Dawn of the Jedi

Filoni - Episode VI.5 - Heir to The Empire? (like an alternate Episode VII - probably featuring late 80s DF Hamill/Ford/Fisher interacting with various characters from the TV shows)

Rey movie - Episode X - New Jed Order (featuring Chewie, R2/3PO, Lando, Forceghosts Luke/Leia/Yoda/ObiWan etc)

I don't believe a word of it. First off, KK is gonna be on the outs soon, and second, they've pulled stunts like this before; announcing "new Star Wars shows/movies," only to cancel them later on. Lucasfilm is probably doing this to keep investors off their backs.

Wouldn't be surprised if one or two get canned like Rogue Squadron (probably the Rey movie and Mangolds prequel) leaving just the Filoni movie which becomes like a D+ movie, of course if that happens then KK would most def be out (which might happen soon, maybe she's trying to cling on so announces these movies?)

That also happened with Paramount about a year ago, they got JJ Abrams to announce the new Star Trek was officially happening at an investor event, the cast were like 'uh? Thought we were done?' and a year later it was taken off the schedule altogether. Turned out he was just doing it for the investors. (previously he'd also announced Chris Hemsworth would be in the next Trek movie when Star Trek Beyond came out)

No more “Star Wars” films until Kathleen Kennedy resigns in DISGRACE or is fired!

Ah, more stuff for me to ignore.
I will never watch a Disney Star Wars show.
I watched up until The Last Jedi. That was enough for me to see how horrically Disney was efffing it all up.
I renounced it, became aware that Star Wars ended with Revenge of the Sith and acknowledge what Lucas created was Canon. I do not even acknowledge that Disney has made any films at all.
F their Woke, put out any crap for a dollar, drivel.

Lucasfilm has not had a Star Wars feature in theaters since 2019’s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. At April’s Star Wars Celebration, it teased its theatrical future, including a feature to star Daisy Ridley, another from The Mandalorian’s Dave Filoni and an epic from James Mangold. On Tuesday, Lucasfilm moved a previously dated Star Wars movie from December 2025 to May 22, 2026. The Ridley feature is furthest along in development and is likely to open on that date. And curiously, Lucasfilm revealed in Tuesday’s announcement that it has added a new Star Wars feature for just five months later: Dec. 18, 2026. (Another Star Wars movie is staying on its current date of Dec. 17, 2027, thus wasn’t mentioned in the announcement).
