Disney has announced plans for a new Star Wars trilogy and TV series.

The company’s CEO, Bob Iger, revealed that the writer-director Rian Johnson will tackle the new films, which will feature completely new characters in “a corner of the galaxy that Star Wars lore has never before explored”.

Sounds good.:)

your timing is perfect because every time I go to the cinema (which is very frequently) I see the trailer for The Last Jedi and I keep asking myself what is going to happen after Ep9. They can only make so many standalone spin offs so are they going to make another trilogy?

Remember there is a vast array of material out there General so l don't think there will be any problem at all.

IMO they could do worse than portray the rise of Darth Vader; there is in fact a very good novel about his start as the Emperor's new enforcer/apprentice - his initial difficulties with the suit and artificial limbs, having to change his lightsabre style...and his ever-increasing rage and the heightened awareness of the Dark Side this afforded him. It'd make a good movie, I think.

As for a live-action TV series, George mentioned that years ago, planned to cover the 20 years between ROTS and ANH. We're still eagerly waiting...

I think Rogue One is what the series would have been like.
