Summary

A major shake up has reportedly happened at Lucasfilm, with the Senior VP of live-action development, Michelle Rejwan, stepping down from the position. We discuss that story and what it could means for the future of live-action Star Wars, while connecting dots using previous interviews, reports, etc. We also answer several questions in our segment Will of the Force like, will Star Wars ever tell a live-action story (movie or series) that takes place within the period between A New Hope and Return of the Jedi? The Resistance base is open to all, so please spread the word about our Star Wars podcast and join us! Please make sure to subscribe free to the show on your preferred platform!
