Terwijl The Mandalorian hoge ogen gooit staat de volgende Star Wars TV serie al in de startblokken: volgens Discussingfilm.net zouden de opnames in juni 2020 van start gaan.
This news comes following the announcement that the series was almost cancelled at Disney+ until Tony Gilroy, who also worked on the extensive reshoots for ‘Rogue One’, joined the project. He will write the pilot as well as direct multiple episodes of the series with ‘The Americans’ Stephen Schaffer set to helm the series as its showrunner.
The untitled series focuses on Rebel agent Cassian Andor prior to the events of ‘Rogue One’ in the early days of the Rebellion against the Empire. The show has been described as a “spy thriller” when plans for it were first revealed last year. It was also previously announced that Alan Tudyk will reprise his role as K-2SO from ‘Rogue One’ alongside Diego Luna as Cassian Andor.
It seems we are going to see why he joined this fight at such a young age. Lucasfilm is currently eyeing to cast 9 year old and 13 year old versions of Cassian Andor. Lucasfilm is also eyeing to cast a 9 year old sister of Cassian Andor’s. If I put on my theory hat for a quick second, we can guess that Cassian’s sister potentially dies in some sort of conflict leading to him joining the Rebellion to avenge his sister.
Verder nieuws van eigen bodem, waar de welbekende site Bol.com al een pagina voor de DVD van The Rise of Skywalker heeft aangemaakt met daarop een releasedatum van 4 april. Een placeholder? Aangezien de vorige 4 films ook rond die tijd verschenen zou het zomaar eens waar kunnen zijn.
