BREAKING NEWS: Kathleen Kennedy's control of Lucasfilm and Star Wars has come to an end. We review some telling highlights from Kathy's exit interview and discuss her Star Wars legacy. With Dave Filoni taking charge of Lucasfilm, does this mean George Lucas will return to the fold? We share our thoughts. Disney revealed a facelift is coming to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland as Original Trilogy characters and situations will be incorporated into the theme park this April. We review all the information about the changes and offer our opinions. Star Wars: Starfighter will feature lightsaber duels and none other than Tom Cruise stopped by the set to jump behind the camera to shoot a sequence. We look at a fresh interview with director Shawn Levy and speculate which characters will be involved in the duel and why. Mark Hamill recently discussed The Force Awakens and the lack of a reunion between Han, Luke and Leia. Find out why such a get together never materialized. Plus, we got interview highlights from Mia Goth, Oscar Isaac and more!
