Chapter Lucasfilm Kathleen Kennedy tried to inflict a powerful blow on the foundation of the franchise “star Wars“(Star wars) And the victim may be a movie adaptation of the game Knights of the old republic (“Knights of the Old Republic“)
Information released by the blogger Doomcock with reference to several independent insiders at once. Despite this, rumors should be treated with caution.
As you know, in Lucasfilm were engaged in films based on the cult sub-series, the beginning of which was given by the studio Bioware. Many hinted that it was over Kotor the director workedTorah 3” Thai Taichi.
However, insiders claim that the second director, the creator, is also attached to the project. “The last jedi” Ryan Johnson. But this is not all: it was planned to give the main role … to the notorious actress Bree Larson. However, the sources disagree on who exactly plays “Captain Marvel“One says that Larson was given the role Bastille Shan second – Darth Revan. This is rather strange, considering that in the old canon Revan was a man, and a woman – Exile from the sequel from Obsidian (Mitra Surik).
Larson’s interest in the Star Wars franchise has been known for a long time, and she recently said that she rejected one of the roles. She was supposed to work with the chapter. Marvel studios Kevin Feigi, who is also involved in a new project in the Star Wars universe and acts as a lobbyist for Disney’s actress interests.
Johnson is wholly a Kennedy creature. Presumably, with this step, the head of Lucasfilm tried to organize another sabotage of the franchise (the first attempt was the announcement of the project from Leslie Headland) However, the plan was frustrated.
On June 29, a blogger insider received information that a senior Disney management had sent an order to Lucasfilm to freeze the production and financing of ALL projects that Kathleen Kennedy had to do with. Allegedly in the company Mickey mouse they learned that Ryan Johnson was working on KotOR and delivered a preemptive strike to protect the brand, which the Last Jedi had already hurt.
At this point, Kennedy also stopped communicating directly with Lucasfilm subordinates, delegating authority to her “right hand”. This happened after another meeting that discussed Lucasfilm’s financial failures and the overall assessment of the Star Wars brand.
Another insider reports that the head of the studio was required to submit all her ongoing projects to Disney for audit by July 3. However, the order was not received from the chairman of the board of directors of the company Bob Iger or president Bob Capek, but from the people who are responsible for the distribution of domestic financial flows.
Several Doomcock insiders confirmed that a meeting was held on July 3 at Disney to study Kennedy’s projects as part of the Star Wars franchise. However, no one can say for sure what exactly happened on it, but there is evidence that an important announcement, directly related to the above meeting, is planned for the first week of September 2023.
Then you can only build theories. First option: Lucasfilm will announce the abolition of the “Knights of the Old Republic”. A project reload is not excluded, although the announcement of the current version should also not be discounted. Second option: Kennedy will publicly announce that she will not renew the contract, which expires in 2023.
