The Star Wars franchise is growing quickly with new live-action shows and movies in the works. Recently, it was reported that a new Star Wars trilogy is being developed.

Lucasfilm has made a deal with Simon Kinberg, who has worked with them in the past. He co-created the Emmy-nominated animated series Star Wars Rebels with Dave Filoni and Carrie Beck, which ran from 2014 to 2018. Kinberg also contributed to Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens, the 2015 film that revived the franchise under director JJ Abrams.

These new films could be episodes 10-12 of the Skywalker Saga, which started with George Lucas’s original Star Wars movie in 1977.

Recent reports suggest that Daisy Ridley’s Rey will play a big role in the upcoming Star Wars movies, and now industry insider Daniel Richtman says that Lucasfilm wants John Boyega to return to the franchise.

This information was shared in Richtman’s paid newsletter, but it hasn’t been confirmed by official sources or the actor.

Boyega has previously said he wouldn’t return to Star Wars, even though his co-star Daisy Ridley has expressed interest in reuniting with him on set.

The chances of Boyega returning are low, as he’s made it clear that he’s done with the franchise. Boyega was unhappy with how he was treated during the filming of the sequel trilogy, feeling that Finn’s character arc was wasted and that the writers and directors didn’t give him the development he deserved.

Boyega has mentioned that he has moved on from these past issues. While he has always been a Star Wars fan, he’s ready to leave that chapter behind. Now, his focus is on building a versatile acting career, rather than being typecast in the same role like Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher were with their Star Wars characters, according to Boyega himself.
