Kathleen Kennedy, the former head of Lucasfilm, has been tapped as head of ceremonies and content for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
She’s replacing Peter Rice, who was hired as Netflix’s chief content officer earlier this week, taking over for Bela Bajaria. He will remain involved with the LA28 Games as executive producer, as first reported by the Hollywood Reporter.
In her role, Kennedy will lead the delivery of all four ceremonies, including the Olympics opening on July 14, 2028 and closing on July 30 as well as the Paralympic opening on Aug. 15 and closing on Aug. 27.
quote:
A widely respected producer, Kennedy worked closely with Steven Spielberg over the years on movies such as “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,” “Jurassic Park” and “Lincoln,” and she helped pick the director J.J. Abrams to helm 2015’s “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” which successfully revived the franchise with more than $2 billion globally. Her tenure at Lucasfilm had both highs and lows, including misfires like 2018’s “Solo: A Star Wars Story” and 2023’s “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.”

The production will be nothing but Mary Sue Girl Bosses as far as the eye can see.
Oh wrong answers only. OK.
There will be at lease some obviously white, heterosexual males who don’t look or act like an idiot or cuck in the production.

She’s gonna make Bruce Jenner come back from the dead and be able to fly through the air to save the Olympics

She’s the definition of “failing upwards”.

This is going to be political as shite isn’t it?

Behind so many movies you all have watched, made since she worked with Spielberg on ET
If I had to guess, it will be massively expensive and geared to a youth audience.
I think she has / had family in Kentucky. That is why Seabiscuit was filmed there.

What has she been creatively responsible for since she broke away from Spielberg?

I'm sure she is absolutely thrilled that Donald J. Trump will be the one to formally open the games.

It doesn't matter who the person in charge is; whoever they appoint will be there with the sole mission of making it as much of a hard-left political spectacle as possible.

She must possess some abilities that aren't obvious to people who watch her movies.

I still can't believe some of those decisions on TLJPosted on 10/28/26 at 12:24 pm to Tigersforthee
How many of the movies on the list above have you watched?
Guessing it would be hard to find anybody who has not watched some of them in the USA.
Is she on the Left, or is she just about making $$$$?

These lefty boomer white women have such a terrible track record of running anything but still get picked. Talk about "privilege."
