Kathleen Kennedy is set to remain at the helm of Lucasfilm, despite widespread speculation suggesting she would step down by the end of 2025. Reports initially claimed that the long-serving studio president, who has overseen the Star Wars franchise since 2012, was preparing to leave, but new sources indicate otherwise, according to CNN.
On Monday, 24 February, Matthew Belloni of Puck News reported that Kennedy intended to vacate her position by the end of the year. However, an unnamed source has since told CNN that 'there's nothing there right now', adding that any official announcement about Kennedy's retirement, if it were to happen, would only be made when 'actual decisions are made'.
