The Star Wars project that’s in pole position currently is the one that Damon Lindelof is writing with Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy set to direct.
The Kevin Feige project which has Michael Waldron attached as writer, as well as Patty Jenkins’ Rogue Squadron, aren’t dead; they’re just not in active development. Waldron is focused on writing 2026’s Avengers: Secret Wars as Deadline first told you.
Also, Rian Johnson’s next stab at Star Wars is also not in active development, but it’s not dead either.
Waititi directed episode eight of The Mandalorian‘s season one and also provided the voice on the show to the bounty hunter-turned-servant droid IG-11.
Waititi’s next movie, which he directed and co-written, Next Goal Wins, comes out on Sept. 22 via Searchlight.
