Star Wars Episodes 10-12 Roasted By Viewers: ‘No Vision’

Star Wars fans have a new film trilogy to look forward to with Simon Kinberg at the helm.

Kinberg has, admittedly, a mixed portfolio.

He produced the award-winning The Martian, for example, as well as Deadpool and Logan, but so too did he direct Dark Phoenix, arguably one of the worst X-Men films.

Still, this is someone who knows what it means to work on a major franchise, and he’ll bring that expertise to Star Wars.

What’s unknown is exactly where Kinberg’s trilogy will fit into everything.

It has been pitched as the opening trilogy of a new mainline saga but that still leaves plenty of question marks surrounding the project.

Will it bring across characters from The Skywalker Saga? Does it follow that saga chronologically? Is it something new entirely?

It’s all a little complicated.

Personally, my take is that it probably will follow on from The Skywalker Saga, bringing across certain characters but not exactly making them the stars of the show; it’s just that though, a theory.

Something truly brilliant could be awaiting us whenever this project eventually materialises.

After all, Kinberg has cited Andor and The Empire Strikes Back as the two existing projects he’s most influenced by.

For the most part though, fans fear that this new trilogy will have “no vision”, perhaps instead falling into the category of serving up fan-service nostalgia.

“There is no vision for this franchise. Just please stop,” declared Reddit user PolarSparks.

“From the guy that brought us Dark Phoenix? Sorry, I have bad feelings,” added another.

“It has to be a new saga right? Like they left nothing to build off in Rise,” commented maybe-an-ai.

Well, it’s unlikely we’ll find out anytime soon.

The Mandalorian and Grogu is the next film to be released within the franchise, landing on 22 May 2026.

That’ll be followed by Star Wars: Starfighter on 28 May 2027.
