We already knew from the first statements relating to the takeover of Lucasfilm by Disney, we will be entitled to Star Wars all over the place in the years to come.
Bob Iger, the Disney CEO who clearly understands that simply uttering the words "Star Wars" is enough to capture the attention of fans and the media, has confirmed that several spin-off films are planned. These films will feature one or more characters in their own unique context and storyline, alongside the continuation of the saga through a new trilogy.
We already know that Lawrence Kasdan (writer of episodes V and VI) and Simon Kinberg (writer of X-Men The Last Stand and Sherlock Holmes) are working on two spin-offs already confirmed alongside their role as consultants on the next trilogy.
We are talking here and there about Yoda who would thus be entitled to his own film, but we could just as well mention Boba and the others. As usual with Star Wars, the next few years will be full of rumors and expertly cultivated speculation by those who hold the truth.
You wanted Star Wars, you're going to have it with no less than 5 films to be released in the next 10 years. And I speak only what is more or less confirmed.
Personally, I'm not very enthusiastic about the idea of stuffing myself two hours with reverse sentences to learn more about Yoda's youth, but a film dedicated to Boba Fett or Mace Windu would not displease me ...
Obviously, this all means even more LEGO Star Wars for us. And that is good news.
Breaking news: There's talk on ew.com of films based on the early life of Han Solo and the adventures of Boba Fett...
