Breaking….Disney has pulled the second Star Wars movie dated for Dec. 18, 2026 off the calendar. We hear it wasn’t certain that one pertained to the continuing adventures of Daisy Ridley’s Rey Skywalker.
Going in that spot is Ice Age 6 which was announced at D23 Brazil a week ago.
As Deadline first reported, Simon Kinberg is now developing a trilogy of Star Wars movies which he’ll produced with Lucasfilm chief Kathleen Kennedy. The trilogy will comprise Episodes 10-12 of The Skywalker Saga that began with George Lucas’s 1977 first film. Kinberg’s project is brewing alongside percolating Star Wars projects by James Mangold, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, Taika Waititi and Donald Glover.
There’s already a Star Wars movie in 2026 — that’s The Mandalorian & Grogu on May 22 that year. It would have been a first in the history of filmmaking that two Star Wars movies would open in the same year, specifically within a six month-ish frame. Box office history has shown that it’s best to space them out.
