Star Wars Universe Will Be “Very Different” To Marvel’s, According To Kathleen

Star Wars is the theater’s permanent look. Speaking to Slashfilm, Kennedy clarified a few things about the standalone films that aren’t part of the main Sequel Trilogy…

If you thought a Luke Skywalker doll for $18,000, a Darth Vader helmet or a cuddly Yoda for $100 were not enough evidence to properly point out the frenzy for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, then maybe the fact that Star Wars condoms are on sale will change your mind.

With what could quite arguably be one of the biggest events in cinematic history taking place in less than a week, the hype for Star Wars Episode VII could never be more evident than it is now.

They are really being designed as standalone movies which is fantastic for the filmmakers we bring in, and the actors we hire, because it’s a different sensibility.

/FILM posted these details from Kennedy on December 10, starting with the potential variety of these anthology films. “[They are] are not being created to necessarily build new franchises”, she said. It would be exciting to see how the standalone films will explore new characters and settings.

At the Kennedy Center Honors in Washington where he was being honored for his achievements in arts and culture, Lucas told Vulture, “I think the fans are going to love it. It’s very much the kind of movie they’ve been looking for”. At the time, he admitted to having 50 hours written, but that they needed to find new technology to make movie-quality images that wouldn’t break the bank. Glad to hear that these movies will become a bit more flexible with the timeline once these two are wrapped. Second, their prices manage to avoid the astronomical heights that some replica lightsabers reach, probably because they manage to avoid official movie licensing (sorry if that’s a dealbreaker for you hardcore fans, but it does allow for a lot more imagination in the saber department). Not prequels to other things, with lots of in-jokes and cameos.

Star Wars 1313 was a stealth-action game in which you played as a young Boba Fett as he navigated a gritty underground city on Coruscant known as Level 1313.
