We’re drowning in Star Wars things that’re in the works right now, and here’s another one to add to the bacta tank. A new trilogy that Lucasfilm has reportedly agreed a deal for Simon Kinberg – known for his work on several X-Men movies – to write and produce.

So yeah, make some space, the likes of The Mandalorian & Grogu, Dave Filoni’s Star Wars thing, the thing with Daisy Ridley in it that looks like it could be called New Jedi Order, and Donald Glover’s Lando thing – there’s a new kid on the block of Star Wars movies that may come out sometime in the near future.

A report from Deadline is the source on this Simon Kinberg Star Wars thing, with the publication reporting that it’s a deal for three films driven by the writer, who has some Star Wars pedigree, having co-created Star Wars Rebels alongside the aforementioned Filoni and Carrie Beck.

Deadline claims to have heard that this new trilogy could comprise “episodes 10-12 of The Skywalker Saga that began with George Lucas’s 1977 first film”, making them a follow-up the the last trilogy of new movies that proved not very polarising at all reception-wise.

Meanwhile, The Hollywood Reporter claims that the trilogy is “not meant to be a continuation of the Skywalker Saga”, and will feature a bunch of new characters and a fresh story.

What we do know at this stage is Kinberg’s track record, which includes X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and X-Men: Apocalypse. He also wrote XXX: State of the Union, which is the one that stars Ice Cube instead of Vin Diesel as its lead, because 2005 was a weird time and some behind-the-scenes stuff involving scripts happened.
