Even as Lucasfilm is deep in post-production on its next Star Wars movie, Star Wars: Starfighter, the next phase of a potential new Skywalker Saga is coming into focus.

Jon Watts, the director behind a trio of Tom Holland Spider-Man movies, is now attached to direct the first installment of the Simon Kinberg-penned trilogy. It is a return to the franchise for Watts, who previously co-created Star Wars series Skeleton Crew in 2024.

Kinberg has been working on writing a mystery trilogy since late 2024. The project is intended to act as the next chapter in what is referred to as the Skywalker Saga, the stories featuring the multi-generations of the Luke Skywalker family. The previous movies have been Episodes I through IX. The next one would be Episode X. Rey Skywalker, the Jedi played by Daisy Ridley in last trilogy released from 2015 and 2019, would appear in some capacity in the new trilogy.

Watts co-created and co-wrote Skeleton Crew, the well-regarded but unfortunately not greatly seen series that starred Jude Law and brought an Amblin vibe to the Star Wars universe. Watts directed two episodes of the show, which also had a starry assemblage of helmers that included David Lowery, Lee Isaac Chung, Jake Schreier, Bryce Dallas Howard, and the Daniels.

Is this before or after Rian Johnson’s trilogy?

So it won't have any actual Skywalkers in it then. Got it.

Someone had better write in a subplot about that time Luke got drunk on Tatooine and couldn't remember his slump-buster with the cantina maid.

"Hi, I'm looking for my dad. Mom says his name was Luke Sky-something. Can you point me in the right direction?"

Did Vader have a side piece? Because all the known Skywalkers are dead.
