One film covers the dawn of the Jedi and another will tie up the various storylines started in “The Mandalorian” and “Ahsoka,” and Jude Law will star in a mysterious show called “Skeleton Crew.” We have a better idea of what the following films and series entail.ĭetails on this series, set to debut sometime in 2024, are slim, but showrunner Leslye Headland did let slip that the series takes place about 100 years before the events of “Phantom Menace.” Maybe we’ll see a young, spry Yoda in his late 700s or early 800s? There are a few new “Star Wars” films and series in the works. Rey, who’s told by the zombified Sith Lord that she’s a Palpatine, too, adopts the Skywalker moniker. Oh, and the clone of Emperor Palpatine ( who somehow returned) dies, too, or so we’re led to believe. The final chapter of the Skywalker saga sees the surviving Skywalkers die: Leia passes in peace and Kylo sacrifices himself for Rey.

Worry not, padawans: CNN has laid out a comprehensive timeline of the “ Star Wars” canon so you can follow all of the franchise’s time-jumps without getting lost in space. “Andor” is a prequel to “Rogue One,” itself a prequel to “A New Hope.” And the forthcoming Disney+ series “The Acolyte” takes place hundreds of years before the Skywalker saga. “The Mandalorian” is set between the original film trilogy and the latest sequels. The problem? All the stories take place at different points of time in the galaxy far, far away. “ Star Wars” fans have much to look forward to in terms of new content.
