ComingSoon.netStory by Brandon Schreur
scrn logline
As Lucasfilm plans a new Star Wars trilogy, the case is made for finally ending the Skywalker saga on a high note and opening the door for fresh stories in this galaxy far, far away.
beat sheet
- The new trilogy's storyline is unclear, with conflicting reports on whether it will continue the Skywalker saga or focus on new characters and a new path forward.
- Lucasfilm has struggled to get non-Skywalker Star Wars projects off the ground, with many shows and movies ending up in dead ends, making a proper Skywalker saga conclusion potentially the best way to set up new successful stories.
