Lucasfilm is already working on a new television adaptation for the Disney streaming platform in the form of an action thriller in a new timeline
Star Wars will have a new series of real action in Disney +; This has been recently and exclusively announced by the Variety medium, a new television adaptation that will come to said streaming platform soon by Leslye Headland, creator of the successful Russian Doll series, and who will be both the main screenwriter and the showrunner of a series that will have a mysterious female protagonist.
New timeline in Star Wars
Thus, beyond the mystery that surrounds its protagonist, its managers affirm that this new Star Wars series will be an action thriller with elements of martial arts and set in a different timeline from that of the well-known Star Wars universe, which He would rule out Ahsoka Tano's rumored individual project with actress Rosario Dawson, at least for the time being.
So much so, that the figure of Aphra, a female character introduced in the Star Wars universe in recent years through numerous comics and who would fit the description of the series, returns to sound strongly, to which we must add the rumors from the end of last year on a possible series of said character for Disney +; Of course, the new timeline would not make sense in this case either.
Along with the well-known series The Mandalorian, whose third season is already underway at the script and concept art level, this new series would add to the already confirmed ones from the Star Wars universe such as Obi-Wan Kenobi with actor Ewan McGregor again as the Jedi Master and Cassian Andor, based on the movie Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, again with actor Diego Luna in the title role.
