Star Wars scrapped movie pivots to new sci-fi project

A planned Star Wars movie written by Simon Farnaby and Paul King has been canceled after Disney/Lucasfilm deemed the robot-centered concept unsuitable for the franchise; Farnaby says the idea is being reworked into a sci-fi project outside Star Wars, as the studio navigates a turbulent period with weak box office for The Mandalorian and Grogu and leadership changes; Lucasfilm’s near-term focus shifts to Ahsoka season 2 and Shawn Levy’s Starfighter.

The piece suggests the extreme negativity could stem from superhero fatigue, heightened expectations, or gender biases more than the film’s actual quality, urging readers to temper hype with a balanced view.
