The galaxy might be gearing up for its biggest cinematic crossover yet—if the latest whispers are true. According to well-known industry insider Daniel RPK, Disney is quietly mapping out a multi-film Star Wars plan that could culminate in an “Avengers: Endgame”-style blockbuster event. Yes, we’re talking lightsabers, hyperspace jumps, and possibly more than one familiar face returning to the big screen. And at the center of it all? Daisy Ridley’s Rey Skywalker. Rey Skywalker: The Starting Point for a New Era RPK claims the saga would begin with the upcoming New Jedi Order movie, directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy. This film would follow Rey in the years after The Rise of Skywalker, rebuilding the Jedi Order and navigating a galaxy still licking its wounds from the First Order’s defeat. While Lucasfilm has officially confirmed the Rey-led project, they’ve kept quiet on whether it will spark a larger, interconnected storyline. But if…

Rumor Alert: Chris Evans May Be Headed to the Star Wars Galaxy—Possibly as a Villain
If you thought Chris Evans had retired his Disney card after hanging up the Captain America shield, think again. According to a fresh industry rumor, Evans might be blasting off to a galaxy far, far away—potentially playing a major role in an upcoming Star Wars film. And no, it’s not as a lightsaber-wielding good guy. The Rumor: Chris Evans Being “Eyed” for a Role The scoop comes from insider Daniel Richtman (aka DanielRPK), whose Patreon reports have a pretty solid hit rate when it comes to casting whispers. He claims Evans is “being eyed” for a role in a future Star Wars project currently in development by Lucasfilm. The strongest theory? Evans could be joining the cast of Star Wars: Starfighter, the still-secretive film directed by Shawn Levy and starring Ryan Gosling. And if the rumor mill is to be trusted, Evans isn’t being lined up to play a scruffy…

Let’s dive into the details, dissect the rumor, and explore how McGregor’s potential involvement could shake up the Ahsoka series. Where Did the Rumor Come From?

Characters from “Skeleton Crew” Rumored to Appear in Dave Filoni’s Star Wars Movie
If there’s one thing Star Wars does well (besides epic lightsaber battles and unexpected droid sass), it’s connecting storylines across its expansive galaxy. The latest buzz in the hyperspace lanes? Characters from the upcoming “Skeleton Crew” series may make an appearance in Dave Filoni’s much-anticipated Star Wars movie, according to a report by ComicBookMovie.com. Let’s dive into this rumor and what it could mean for the galaxy far, far away. What Is “Skeleton Crew”? For the uninitiated, “Skeleton Crew” is an upcoming Star Wars TV series set during the New Republic era. Created by Jon Watts (of Spider-Man fame), the show promises a fresh perspective on Star Wars storytelling, following a group of kids who find themselves lost in the galaxy. But don’t let the youthful focus fool you—it’s still Star Wars, so expect danger, drama, and probably a wise mentor or two to keep things balanced. The show is…
Some Interesting Theories on Kylo Ren’s Lightsaber
Since we first saw the trailer, Kylo Ren’s lightsaber has drawn a lot of criticism. People have said that it’s weird, complained about it, even started a hilarious meme based on it (my favorite is the Swiss army lightsaber). But a few others have given it more thought. For example, FastCo posted a great defense of the saber in which they pointed out that Luke lost a hand, Vader lost a hand twice, and Count Dooku lost both hands—all because they didn’t have a crossguard. They also have a few interesting ideas about what it says about Ren. One of the most interesting ideas that’s surfaced is that this isn’t a lightsaber at all, but a Forcesaber (an example of which is pictured above), an extremely ancient weapon that channels dark Force energy through crystals to form a blade. According to some Expanded Universe sources, the Je’daii order was split over whether or not…
Will Vader Be Returning in Episode VII?
One of the stranger rumors that’s been making its way around the internet lately is that Darth Vader will return—in some form or another—in Episode VII. While that may sound ridiculous at first, a few people have made some interesting arguments, and they could be supported by some evidence that we’ve seen. Let’s take a look. Some of the Vader-returning theories center on Kylo Ren, the Sith that we’ve seen in the trailer; he’s the one with the much-discussed red lightsaber (or at least that’s what we assume so far—we know he’s a villain). Some of the speculation of Vader’s return is almost certainly a result of Ren’s helmet, which bears an undeniable resemblance to the Dark Lord’s: This has led a few people on Reddit to speculate that Ren somehow personifies or channels Darth Vader; it’s also been suggested that this actually was Vader’s helmet, and that Ren has stolen…
The Spin-Off Movies: What Do We Know?
Ever since we found out that there were going to be standalone movies that focus on a single character in the Star Wars universe, we’ve had tons of questions—who would they center on? Who would be attached to write and direct? Who would be playing our favorite Star Wars characters? Although the first major announcement about these spin-offs came almost two years ago, we still haven’t learned a lot. We have managed to gather a few rumors, though. We’re confident that one of the films will focus on Han Solo, will take place between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. Gary Whitta, writer of The Book of Eli and After Earth, was attached to the project, but left after completing the first draft of the script—though the split seems to be an amicable one, judging by Whitta’s support of Disney and Lucasfilm and director Gareth Edwards‘ public thanks to him for writing….
JJ Abrams to Direct Star Wars Episode 7?
UPDATE: This has since been confirmed true by Disney and Lucasfilm. Yay! Rumors have been buzzing the internet since Thursday evening when the news broke that JJ Abrams would direct Star Wars Episode 7, despite his earlier comments that he was not interested in directing the film. However, we’ve been unable to find confirmation from Abrams’ representatives, Disney or Lucasfilm that the rumor is actually true. The news was spread by multiple trade reports, including The Wrap, which has now pulled its Abrams story. The Hollywood Reporter still has their Abrams story up which says “Sources confirm to The Hollywood Reporter that the Star Trekdirector is negotiating to direct Episode VII, the next installment in the fabled sci-fi franchise.” But this doesn’t tell us who their sources are and with no official confirmation, we cannot be 100% certain it’s not a rumor. All of the stories we find by official news sites like ABC…
SWTOR in Australia and NZ: Delay Rumors
While it’s been discussed before, there are new facts in the equation regarding a possible launch delay for SWTOR in Australia and New Zealand. The original source of the most recent rumor? Hex from Good Game. She tweeted: “Unfortunately we missed out on Star Wars: The Old Republic- but the game’s been delayed for Australia- probs another E3 before release.” This one simple tweet would cause quite an uproar as fans wanted to know where the information was obtained from and what it meant. Hex later said the info was via their Australian PR agent when her team was trying to get a dev interview. She adds, “Only US and Europe this year I was told” TOROZ contacted David Bass at Bioware to get some clarification on this rumor nad were told the expected- Bioware doesn’t comment on rumors and “launch regions” have not been announced yet. So with that,…
