Three new Star Wars films have been announced at Star Wars Celebration Europe.

James Mangold will direct a pre-Old Republic film about the origins of the Force.

Dave Filoni will direct a film taking place between “The Mandalorian” and “The Force Awakens.”

And Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy will direct a sequel, which will take place 15 years after “The Rise of Skywalker.” This was announced as a new film but Obaid-Chinoy was already slated to work on a Star Wars film, so it’s unclear if these are two different projects.

Daisy Ridley is set to reprise her role as Rey from the sequel trilogy as she leads a “new Jedi order.”

Could Daisy Ridley be returning to a galaxy far, far away? A new rumor suggests that Rey’s story isn’t over just yet.

According to pop culture website Giant Freakin Robot, Ridley is reportedly in talks to reprise the character which appeared in the Star Wars sequel trilogy from 2015 to 2019. It’s not clear as to what project this may be, whether it’s a new film or one of the many upcoming Disney+ series set in the Star Wars universe.

Ridley’s last appearance as Rey was in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, which earned over a billion dollars at the box office in its original theatrical run. Rey can also be seen in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Disneyland and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, though her scene is currently being skipped at the Disneyland version of the attraction as part of the park’s COVID-19 safety measures.
