More often than not, being a Star Wars fan can be a roller coaster ride. From movies that grow into cult classics over time, to baffling plot decisions made in the franchise’s extended canon, to the laundry list of scrapped or cancelled projects, there’s a lot to have a lot of feelings about.
That has especially been the case as the franchise has tried to get back onto the big screen, with the last new theatrical release being 2019’s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. A number of movies have ebbed and flowed out of development since then, with next year’s The Mandalorian and Grogu set to be the next blockbuster in the saga. Shawn Levy’s Star Wars: Starfighter is also currently filming, and a handful of other films spanning centuries of canon are in the works. While those have provoked their fair share of chatter online, the news of a project that won’t see the light of day has taken the Internet by storm.
