    Oh NO! One of the fools in charge of the awful mess 'Lost' is now
    making a Star Wars show ... Disney flushes the franchise even further
    down the toilet. :-(



    New Star Wars Show Being Written By Lost Showrunner
    ---------------------------------------------------
    Carlton Cuse has been tapped to write a new Star Wars show
    from Lucasfilm.

    Cuse served as the showrunner of ABC's Lost alongside
    Damon Lindelof. He also co-created Amazon Prime Video's
    Jack Ryan series with Graham Roland and has worked on
    shows such as Bates Motel, The Strain, Colony, Locke & Key,
    Five Days at Memorial, and Pulse, among other titles.

    What do we know about the new Star Wars show from the Jack
    Ryan creator?

    According to Jeff Sneider's The InSneider, Cuse and his
    son, Nick Cuse, are now writing a new Star Wars series for
    Lucasfilm and Disney+.

    Plot details are being kept under wraps at this time,
    meaning it's unclear who the show will focus on or where
    it will be set within the Star Wars timeline.

    Nick Cuse has worked on shows such as The Leftovers,
    Maniac, Watchmen, Calls, and Station Eleven. He also
    co-wrote the screenplay for 2020's The Hunt, which was
    directed by Craig Zobel. This marks the first time that
    Carlton and Nick Cuse have collaborated on a project
    together.

    While fans wait to see what Carlton and Nick's Star Wars
    series turns out to be, Lucasfilm is now getting ready to
    launch Andor Season 2. Created by Tony Gilroy, the new
    season will premiere on Disney+ with three new episodes
    on April 22, 2025. Three new episodes will continue to
    drop weekly on Tuesdays until the finale then arrives on
    May 13, 2025.

    Meanwhile, Jon Favreau's The Mandalorian & Grogu
    currently has a May 22, 2026, release date, while it was
    additionally recently announced that Shawn Levy's Star
    Wars movie was moving forward in development as it has
    been given a May 28, 2027, release date. Starring Ryan
    Gosling, that film is now officially titled Star Wars:
    Starfighter.

    A number of other Star Wars projects remain in various
    stages of development, including the Taika Waititi movie,
    the Rey film, and more.
