Star Wars is a science fiction franchise set in a universe far far away.
Kathleen Kennedy Is To Blame For The Sequel Films Failure
As we know the Star Wars sequel trilogy made over $4 billion dollar worldwide, however the number from Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens to Star Wars Episode XI: The Rise of Skywalker went down from earning $2.7 billion to $1.7 billion dollar. There are reasons why this film flopping over time, and to be honest, The Force Awakens made over $2 billion because of the long awaited Star Wars film since 2005’s Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. It was long overdue for Star Wars fans and a nostalgia with the original characters to come back and reprise their respective roles for the older generation that grew up with the original trilogy. These two reasons why it drew the audience back to see the movie, of course, not too mention not just the older but new generation of Star Wars fan will see it no matter what. But why is the film flawed and going down? Well, the Star Wars sequel trilogy was already flawed from the get go, because of the lack of planning and forethought. Even George Lucas, what it seems like to claim that he mapped out all the entire Star Wars saga from the get go, but that’s just an over saturate statement, since there’s an existing evidence he was actually making up as he went along, with Darth Vader with a completely different back story before Darth Vader was reconned as Luke Skywalker’s father on his second draft of the script, as it had been seen in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back.

'Star Wars: The High Republic': We Now Have A Wookiee Padawan
In the upcoming multimedia project titled Star Wars: The High Republic, a new cast of characters will be introduced that will showcase a new generation of Jedi, colloquially referred to as "The High Republic Padawans." Padawans are some of the more interesting kind of Jedi. They have a unique perspective on the Jedi Order, and they are a good way for people to get a better idea of what the Jedi Order is all about. When their masters teach them about the Force and the Order, we are also learning about them at the different periods in their history. The Jedi are an eclectic group of races, but there have been very few Wookiees that we have seen wielding lightsabers. (Lowbacca in Legends and Gungi from The Clone Wars may come to mind.)

Donald Glover Might Be Reprising His Role As Lando Calrissian For 'The Mandalorian' Season 2?
As Star Wars fans eagerly wait for the season 2 premiere of The Mandalorian this Friday, the internet has become ripe with news, leaks, and rumors about what is to come, this coming season. When thinking of The Mandalorian, it is likely that Solo: A Star Wars Story is not one of the first things that come to mind. Attempting to satisfy die-hard Star Wars Fans is certainly no simple task. Even though the legendary director, Ron Howard, put forth a remarkable effort with Solo: A Star Wars Story, the film failed to reach light speed at the box office. Solo: A Star Wars Story cost nearly $400 million to produce and market, and despite its spirited performances and rough-and-tumble humor, the film only yielded $150 million in its opening weekend in May 2018.

The Rumors Of Pedro Pascal Leaving 'The Mandalorian' Are False
These past several weeks, we have been hearing about the rumors of Pedro Pascal being out as The Mandalorian and pretty much just lending his voice acting for the character going forward on season 3, which Disney has confirmed will be filming next month. It has also been rumored that Pedro Pascal had some problems while the actor was on set. Allegedly, the reason Pedro Pascal wanted out as The Mandalorian was because he wanted to be seen by taking off his helmet, which led to clashing with the creator of The Mandalorian, Jon Favreau, as well as Dave Filoni. Another rumor that was reported was that Pascal actually went to Lucasfilm in an attempt for Lucasfilm to step in and be on his side, but it did not work out as he planned. This cost the creators to tell Pascal to leave the set, which the rumor said he did, and costing of the shift of the character in The Mandalorian season 2 to focus on other characters. The focus on other characters was something confirmed by Jon Favreau in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.

Samuel L Jackson Believes Mace Mindu Survived His Shocking Demise
In all of the prequel films, few of the new characters were as memorable or as popular as the Jedi Master Mace Windu. How much of that is the result of him being played by Samuel L Jackson, one of the most popular actors of all time, is up for debate, but he was one of the few characters who had... character. Sort of. He had a purple lightsaber unlike any other Star Wars characters, and he was portrayed as one of the Jedi's most powerful warriors, both in the dialogue, and his brief fight with the bounty hunter Jango Fett. It was Windu who was the most distrustful of Anakin, and naturally, Windu's death at the hands (er... lightning) of Chancellor Palpatine, AKA Darth Sideous with Anakin's help is the final nail in the coffin for Anakin's journey to the dark side. With Mace being shot out of a window into with the use of Force lightning after Anakin cut his hand, Mace Windu seemed like he was totally kaput.
