The new StarWars movies from Dave Filoni, James Mangold, and Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy will feature the classic crawl, says Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy.
As Star Wars is headed towards a new era on the big screen, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy reassures fans that the opening crawl in front of the upcoming movies is here to stay. During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly at Star Wars Celebration Europe, the executive talked about how the crawl is a known trademark of the franchise, and that any future installment flying toward the big screen would include its own version of it.
The first out of the three new stories announced at Celebration will be directed by James Mangold, and it will explore the origin story of the first Jedi the galaxy ever saw. While The Last Jedi explored why the Order needed to change to avoid past mistakes and Revenge of the Sith illustrated their downfall, audiences will be taken centuries into the past to see how the Jedi came to be, and why their role was so important for thousands of years to come.
