Kevin Feige Addresses STAR WARS Fatigue And His Planned Movie Set In A Galaxy Far, Far Away

It's no secret that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige is looking to make the leap to Star Wars to produce a movie set in that Galaxy and he's now weighed in on both his film and "franchise fatigue."

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker will conclude the "Skywalker Saga" and once that's done, no one really knows what comes next for the franchise on the big screen. It has, however, been confirmed that Marvel Cinematic Universe mastermind Kevin Feige is looking to produce an adventure set in a Galaxy Far, Far Away, news which has got fans very excited indeed. 

"I love that world and I love the notion of exploring new people and new places in that universe," he said during a recent interview with THR. "But that’s sort of all that can be said for now."

So, it sounds more like an original tale than a continuation of any story we've seen before but it's clearly still early days and we know that Feige is a pro when it comes to keeping secrets. 

He was then asked about possible franchise fatigue with Star Wars and it's clear that's not a notion he agrees with. "Well they’ve made about five movies in about five years and it’s made over five billion dollars," he responded, "so I think they’re doing just fine with Star Wars. And Rise of Skywalker looks incredible to me." It's a fair point but interest in the franchise does seem to be diminishing.

That's why Disney is now putting Star Wars movies on hiatus and going back to the drawing board to see where they can take things next. Having Feige in their corner might be their smartest move to date, though, and it's going to be interesting seeing how his effort ultimately comes together.
