China Box Office: Ip Man 4 make $13.5M on Friday & will top the weekend with the expectation of $40M. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker only gross $5.87M in 2 days incl previews. It's unclear if the last chapter of Skywalker could reach $20M total... #IpMan4 #TheRiseOfSkywalker

After ‘Rise of Skywalker’ and Baby Yoda, Kathleen Kennedy’s plan for ‘Star Wars’ and beyond

Kennedy said she plans to make key decisions about the direction of the franchise in the coming weeks. But some things she already knows. While the “Skywalker” saga is ending, the company won’t abandon the characters created in the most recent trilogy. Additionally, she said, the plan is to move beyond trilogies, which can be restricting.

“I think it gives us a more open-ended view of storytelling and doesn’t lock us into this three-act structure,” she said. “We’re not going to have some finite number and fit it into a box. We’re really going to let the story dictate that.”
