ROGUE SQUADRON Movie Coming From WONDER WOMAN 1984 Director Patty Jenkins; LANDO & More TV Shows Revealed

There were even more big Star Wars announcements during Disney's Investor Day, with Wonder Woman 1984 director Patty Jenkins set to helm Rogue Squadron, and more TV shows - including Lando! Check it out...

During Disney's Investor Day, it was confirmed that Thor: Love and Thunder director Taika Waititi remains hard at work developing a new Star Wars movie. However, while we're seemingly going to be waiting a while for that one, it's been revealed that Wonder Woman 1984 director Patty Jenkins' next project will be a Rogue Squadron movie!

Set to be released in 2023, plot details obviously haven't been revealed yet, but we do have this:
 


The title alone tells us a lot about what to expect from this, as does Jenkins' teaser video, and we now know why the filmmaker has played coy about Wonder Woman 3 being her next project.

We also have a look at the other Star Wars projects coming to Disney+. Details are few and far between, and the Tweets below tell you all we really know right now. Whether that Lando series is live-action or animated remains to be seen, and was no mention of a cast (so, we don't know whether Donald Glover is reprising his Solo: A Star Wars Story role).

The fact it's being billed as an "event series" probably bodes well, however!

The Acolyte sounds like something completely different, though, with that long talked about "High Republic Era" clearly set to be the focus. For those of you sick of stories set during or around the Skywalker Saga, that show will serve as a breath of fresh air!

Take a look at the reveals below:

@LameLuka - How? She flat-out said that she wanted a break between WW1984 and WW 3.

Stifle.

Patty is a great pick but the tv side is KILLING THE MOVIE SIDE.

Tv may be the future for Star Wars for some time

Feeling like the film idea is pretty dull and more nostalgia bait, but it will all be in the execution. Give us the goods Patty.

Patty Jenkins is a really really busy woman, with Wonder Woman 3, Cleopatra, and now Star Wars. I'm curious what order shes going in with all of this, rn all i know is Star wars is in 2023, but I hope that means that WW3 isn't going to be out in like 2025

@DannRamm113 - I think Cleopatra's first because of the big pay day they got from Paramount

Rogue Squadron and Acolyte I'm the most looking forward too right now. Hoping to see the crime syndicates (including Maul, Han and the Hutts) in the Lando show

For me, the excitement level of the live action stuff (besides Mando of course) is:

- Ahsoka
- Obi-wan
- Accolyte
- Rangers
- Andor
- Lando
