Star Wars Celebration 2023: The Ultimate Fan Experience.
At Celebration 2023, Disney and Lucasfilm announced their plan for the future of Star Wars, which involves giving fans more of what they want, such as Rey, Jedi, and Thrawn. The new movies and shows announced focus on fan-favorite characters and concepts, without necessarily living up to the originals. The absence of a proper Episode X suggests that Disney is not looking to dramatically impact the canon of the series. The focus on streaming shows allowed Lucasfilm to recalibrate what it thinks people want out of this franchise.
