STAR WARS: NEW JEDI ORDER MOVIE FACES ANOTHER WRITER SHAKE-UP
The highly anticipated Star Wars film, ‘The New Jedi Order,’ is facing continued challenges in its development. The project, which has been in the works for over two years, is experiencing ongoing issues with the script. While not officially on hold, Lucasfilm is actively seeking a new writer following Steven Knight’s exit from the project. Knight had been working on the script since March of the previous year, replacing previous writers Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson who left due to creative differences.
The film’s concept centers on Rey’s efforts to establish a new Jedi order, featuring her tutelage at an academy for aspiring Jedi. Despite the creative hurdles, documentary filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy remains on board to direct the project, with no indication of doubt regarding her future with Lucasfilm.
The ongoing script development is part of a broader landscape of multiple Star Wars projects in various stages of development. With seven projects currently in the pipeline, including works from directors like Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, and Patty Jenkins, Lucasfilm continues to evaluate the priority and future of ‘The New Jedi Order’ within this context.
Despite the challenges, there’s still optimism surrounding the project. Daisy Ridley, who plays Rey, has expressed excitement about the film, downplaying potential creative issues. In a recent statement, Ridley said, ‘I’m very excited. The story is really cool. I’m waiting to read a script because they’re really wanting to get it right, which is really exciting.’
As Lucasfilm works to refine the script and move the project forward, fans and industry observers alike are keenly watching the development of this next chapter in the Star Wars saga. The studio’s commitment to getting the story right, coupled with the continued involvement of key talent like Obaid-Chinoy and Ridley, suggests that while challenges persist, ‘The New Jedi Order’ remains an important part of the franchise’s future plans.
