Katee Sackhoff Jokes About “Job Security Forever” as Bo-Katan in Star Wars
Bo-Katan Kryze might not be going anywhere anytime soon—at least if Katee Sackhoff has anything to say about it. In a recent interview, the Star Wars actress shared a humorous but telling insight about her Mandalorian character’s future, joking that she’s confident she’ll keep returning to the role for years to come. Why? Because Bo-Katan is closely tied to Star Wars creative chief Dave Filoni in a very personal way. “I Have Job Security Forever” Speaking about her future in the galaxy far, far away, Sackhoff joked that she feels secure continuing as Bo-Katan because the character is loosely inspired by someone very important to Filoni—his wife. “So I have job security forever,” Sackhoff said with a laugh when discussing Bo-Katan’s long-term future. The comment was delivered in good humor, but it highlights just how deeply rooted the character is within modern Star Wars storytelling and Filoni’s creative world. Bo-Katan’s…

Patrick Stewart Dreams of a Star Wars and Star Trek Crossover: “I Would Get Such a Kick Out of That”
The idea of a crossover between Star Wars and Star Trek has lived in fan discussions for decades — and now even Patrick Stewart is openly admitting he’s imagined it too. In a recent interview, the legendary actor revealed that the thought of merging the two iconic sci-fi universes isn’t just something fans debate online.

I would personally get such a kick out of that.” A Sci-Fi Crossover Fans Have Wanted for Decades A crossover between Star Wars and Star Trek would be one…
Happy 80th Birthday to C-3PO Himself: Celebrating Anthony Daniels and a Galaxy of Golden Memories
If there’s one voice in the Star Wars galaxy that could politely panic its way through a galactic war, negotiate with Ewoks, and still remind everyone about etiquette, it’s Anthony Daniels. And today, the man behind C-3PO officially turns 80. Yes — the golden protocol droid who has been worrying about odds since 1977 is now celebrating a milestone birthday in real life. And honestly, the Star Wars universe wouldn’t be the same without him. The Only Actor in All Nine Skywalker Saga Films Anthony Daniels holds a record few actors in cinematic history can claim. He is the only performer to appear in all nine films of the Skywalker Saga — from A New Hope to The Rise of Skywalker. While other actors came and went, switched roles, or appeared only in certain trilogies, Daniels remained a constant. Through every rebellion, empire, and awkward diplomatic moment, C-3PO was always…
Tony Gilroy Says Andor’s Ghorman Is Basically Greenland in New Interview
Andor has never exactly been subtle about its political themes, and according to creator Tony Gilroy, that’s very much by design. In a new interview discussing the relevance of the series and its real-world inspirations, Gilroy made a striking comparison between the planet Ghorman and modern geopolitical tensions—specifically referencing Greenland. “Ghorman is Greenland. Ghorman is anything. ‘We want the rare earth, we want this.’ It really is just a crude laundry list of moves that they have… it rhymes with the show.” The comment reinforces something many fans have already picked up on: Andor isn’t just telling a Star Wars story. It’s reflecting real-world power struggles, resource conflicts, and political maneuvering through a galaxy far, far away. A Star Wars Story With Real-World Parallels Gilroy has been open from the start that Andor draws heavily from historical and contemporary politics. From authoritarian crackdowns to corporate-state alliances and resistance movements, the…
Tony Gilroy Shuts Down Rumors of Tension Between Him and Dave Filoni Over Andor
Star Wars fans love a good behind-the-scenes drama almost as much as a lightsaber duel—but according to Andor creator Tony Gilroy, the rumored friction between him and Lucasfilm creative chief Dave Filoni simply doesn’t exist. In a new interview, Gilroy addressed speculation that Filoni may have disliked Andor or had creative disagreements with the team behind the critically acclaimed series. His response? A very clear and repeated no. “No. We’ve only met a couple times, and we’ve only had a half-a-dozen conversations over the last ten years… We’ve always gotten along with those guys, and we’ve never had anything but high praise for everything that they’ve done.” Gilroy went on to emphasize that the success of modern Star Wars Disney+ content—particularly The Mandalorian—is the very reason Andor was able to exist in the first place. “We only have our show because of them, and we’ve always said that was true….

Embo Returns in The Mandalorian & Grogu — And Yes, His Language Still Comes From French Smurfs Books
With The Mandalorian & Grogu bringing back fan-favorite bounty hunter Embo, one of the strangest and funniest pieces of Star Wars trivia is suddenly relevant again. Because while Embo may look like one of the coolest warriors in the galaxy… his mysterious language has one of the most unexpected origins in franchise history. Dave Filoni Created Embo’s Language by Accident When Dave Filoni and the The Clone Wars team were developing Embo, they faced a creative challenge:What should this silent, hat-wearing bounty hunter actually sound like? Instead of building a fully constructed alien language from scratch, Filoni did something far more improvisational. He recorded himself reading from his editor’s French Smurfs books — originally meant for his child — and used that as placeholder dialogue for Embo. The idea was simple:Use something foreign-sounding and slightly garbled to create a believable alien voice while they figured out a final direction. But…
Steven Soderbergh and Adam Driver “Frustrated” After Disney Scraps The Hunt for Ben Solo
A surprising new chapter in the ongoing Star Wars saga behind the scenes has come to light, and it involves a project many fans didn’t even know existed: The Hunt for Ben Solo. According to recent interviews with director Steven Soderbergh, the unmade film spent years in development before Disney ultimately decided to pull the plug — leaving the creative team disappointed and fans wondering what could have been. Two and a Half Years of Work — For Nothing Speaking during a Brooklyn film series interview, Soderbergh revealed that he, Adam Driver, and writer Rebecca Blunt spent years developing the project, only to see it quietly cancelled. “That was two and a half years of free work for me and Adam and Rebecca Blunt…The stated reason [from Disney] was, ‘We don’t think Ben Solo could be alive.’ And that was all we were told. And so there’s nothing to do…
“Weathers Apollo” — The Mandalorian & Grogu Trailer Includes Touching Tribute to Carl Weathers
Sometimes Star Wars hits you right in the feels — and this time, it’s a subtle moment that fans might have missed on first watch. A new shot from the latest The Mandalorian & Grogu trailer appears to include a quiet but deeply touching tribute to the late Carl Weathers. A Hidden Message in Aurebesh In one scene from the trailer, text can be seen written above a doorway in Aurebesh. When translated, it reads: “Weathers Apollo.” It’s a simple detail, but one loaded with meaning. Carl Weathers famously portrayed Greef Karga in The Mandalorian, becoming one of the show’s most beloved characters across its run. Before joining the Star Wars galaxy, Weathers was also known worldwide for playing Apollo Creed in the Rocky franchise — making the phrase “Weathers Apollo” an especially fitting tribute. Honoring a Mandalorian Legend Carl Weathers passed away in 2024, and his impact on The…

The iconic director will voice an Ardennian alien in the upcoming film The Mandalorian & Grogu, marking his first-ever appearance in a Star Wars project — even if it’s behind the mic. Yes, that Martin Scorsese. Taxi Driver. Goodfellas. The man who once famously critiqued superhero movies… now part of a galaxy far, far away. And honestly? This is kind of amazing. From Film Legend to Star Wars Cameo According to reports, Scorsese will lend his voice to an Ardennian — the same multi-armed alien species as Rio Durant from Solo: A Star Wars Story. The role is expected to be a voice cameo, but the significance is huge. Bringing in one of cinema’s most respected directors adds another layer of prestige (and fun crossover energy) to The…
Bobby Moynihan Teases Possible Return of Jedi Bob in Future Star Wars Project

Actor and comedian Bobby Moynihan has hinted that he could return as the fan-favorite character in a future Star Wars project — and it sounds like even he wants to see the character taken further. “There may be some stuff coming…” Speaking recently about his time in Star Wars, Moynihan suggested that Jedi Bob’s story may not be finished. “Yeah, there may be some stuff coming… Hopefully that’s not the last we see of Jedi. Live-action Jedi Bob is what I need.” While he didn’t confirm any specific project, the tease was enough to spark speculation that Lucasfilm could have more plans for the character. From LEGO Joke to Fan-Favorite Jedi Jedi Bob originally started as something of an inside joke — a generic LEGO Star Wars minifigure from early LEGO sets that fans humorously named…

The jump from Disney+ to cinema isn’t being treated casually.

And he meant it literally. Built for IMAX, Not for Pausing Favreau made it clear the film isn’t just a stretched-out TV episode: “We gotta up our game now for the movie theater, and that means taller aspect ratios for IMAX, building sets that take full advantage of…. We want to take you on an adventure, and that adventure has to fill up the screen and has to be something where people at this moment in time when so much is competing for your attention, that you’re gonna stop what you’re doing and you’re gonna go to a movie theater, and you’re gonna sit down…

ANDOR Creator Tony Gilroy on How the Show Has Helped People Process Trump’s “Cosplay Fascism”
In a recent interview, Tony Gilroy, the creator and showrunner behind Andor, shared how the critically acclaimed Star Wars prequel series has become unexpectedly relevant to contemporary political conversations — especially for viewers grappling with the rise of what Gilroy described as “cosplay fascism” during the Trump era. Gilroy acknowledged that while Andor was conceived long before recent political turbulence, its themes — particularly sacrifice and resistance — have struck a chord with audiences trying to make sense of modern realities. Andor isn’t just a galactic tale of rebellion against the Empire; it’s a narrative that invites viewers to reflect on their own moral choices. As Gilroy put it: “I do hope we have some small part to play. You know, we’re one of many pieces, one of many paddles in the water… We spent like, five years thinking about sacrifice. The whole show is based on sacrifice. You’re trying…

A brand-new teaser for the upcoming film dropped during the Big Game, and while it doesn’t spill major plot secrets, it does something arguably more powerful: it sets the tone. And that tone? Classic Star Wars adventure, emotional stakes, and a bond that just won’t quit. Sam Elliott’s Voice Brings Western Energy to Star Wars The biggest surprise from the teaser isn’t a spaceship or a blaster — it’s the voice guiding the whole thing. The narration is widely attributed to Sam Elliott, whose legendary gravelly voice instantly gives the spot a frontier, almost Western feel — which honestly fits The Mandalorian vibe perfectly.

This is the movie that moves the Mandalorian era from Disney+ to the cinema — and the marketing push is clearly scaling up to match….
Report: Dave Filoni’s MandoVerse Crossover Movie May Be Reworked Into a Disney+ Series
A new report suggests that the planned Dave Filoni–helmed crossover project set in the so-called MandoVerse may no longer be moving forward as a theatrical film. According to industry scooper DanielRPK, the project is being reworked into a limited series for Disney+ instead of a feature movie. At this stage, the information should be treated as unconfirmed, as Lucasfilm and Disney have not issued any official statement. What Was the MandoVerse Crossover? The project, first announced during Lucasfilm’s broader film slate reveal, was intended to bring together story threads from: Filoni was set to direct the crossover event, which was positioned as a culmination of the interconnected storytelling built across these Disney+ series. Why a Shift to Series Could Make Sense If the report is accurate, moving the project from film to limited series wouldn’t be unprecedented in the modern franchise landscape. The MandoVerse storyline is already structured like long-form…
Andor Writer Dan Gilroy Reveals the Historic Roots Behind Mon Mothma’s Senate Speech
One of the most talked-about moments in Andor wasn’t a battle, a betrayal, or a spy operation — it was a speech. Now, writer Dan Gilroy has shed light on just how carefully that moment was constructed, revealing that Mon Mothma’s Senate address was inspired by some of the most significant political speeches in modern history. A speech built like history Gilroy pointed out a striking detail: Mon Mothma’s speech measures 269 words — just three words shorter than Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. That comparison wasn’t accidental. The speech’s structure and tone draw directly from Lincoln’s rhetorical style, particularly the moral clarity and sense of historic urgency found in his first inaugural address. A blend of global voices But Lincoln wasn’t the only influence. Gilroy explained that Mon’s words also echo the oratory traditions of: That combination of voices helps explain why the scene carries such weight. Rather than sounding…
Star Wars: Starfighter Aims to Recapture the Joy of the Original Films, Says Screenwriter
Lucasfilm’s upcoming Star Wars: Starfighter is being positioned as both something new and something deeply familiar. According to screenwriter Jonathan Tropper, the film is designed to tap back into the sense of adventure, excitement, and pure cinematic joy that defined the original Star Wars experience for many viewers as kids. “The joy we felt as little kids” Speaking about the project, Tropper described the creative goal behind Starfighter in terms that longtime fans will immediately recognize. He explained that audiences should expect: “Something new and different, but in very much the spirit of the original Star Wars movies. We really wanted adventure, excitement, wish fulfillment and the joy that we felt as little kids seeing those first versions of the movies.” That framing suggests a tonal direction focused less on dense lore and more on emotional immediacy — the kind of storytelling that prioritizes wonder and momentum. Balancing mythology with…
Let’s Talk About Star Wars Jedi 3 Release Rumors — And Why It’s Too Early
Lately, you may have seen headlines suggesting that the next Star Wars Jedi game could arrive in the first half of 2026. Let’s slow down for a moment. There has been no official release window announcement from EA, Respawn, or Lucasfilm Games. None. And in the current state of the industry, that detail matters more than ever. Where the 2026 talk is coming from The speculation seems to be built on production timelines and assumptions about how long AAA sequels usually take. On paper, that can make sense. Fallen Order launched in 2019. Survivor followed in 2023. A 2026 target doesn’t sound impossible. But “possible” is not the same thing as confirmed. Right now, EA’s marketing focus has shifted away from Jedi: Survivor and toward Star Wars: Zero Company — a title that is officially slated for 2026 and still doesn’t have a specific release date. If a game already…
