TWO NEW STAR WARS MOVIES ANNOUNCED!

Geek


When Star Wars Episode 7 was first announced, it shook the Star Wars fan-base to its foundation. Just to think the beloved Star Wars series, which had been re watched many times over I'm sure, would be continuing was amazing. But now, we are still experiencing new after shocks with the announcement of two new Star Wars movies.
Alright, so the first is called Rouge One, a film not part of the traditional series which will follow around an individual character instead of an entire plot. Not much is known about it, but from what it sounds like it seems it may be about someone who has gone rouge- although I'm not sure about that. Also, because is says Rouge One, it sounds like it could be about a solider like a Storm Trooper, since they have numbers as I.D.s. It could even be a story about that one Storm Tropper we saw in the Episode 7 trailer, who most certainly seemed rouge. While we don't know what it is about, we do know it will be released in winter of 2016, more accurately December 16, 2016, (about a year after Episode 7) and will be featured in theaters. It will also be directed by the same guy who directed Godzilla (the new one), which looks really awesome and well directed, so I am excited to see his work. It will also be written by the same writer who wrote Cinderella, and while it isn't very appealing to me, it does seem fairly well written.
Now for some main-series news. They have now officially announced a new movie in the main Star Wars series: Star Wars: Episode 8!


This movie is still very much under-wraps, but here's what we know:

  • It is a continuation of the Episode 7 time line
  • It is a Star Wars movie (duh!)
  • It is to be released on May 26, 2017
  • It is directed and written by Rian Johnson, director of films such as Looper 

Overall this news is very exciting, and I can't believe that the Star Wars series is finally kicking up into full gear once more! Stay tuned, and thanks for reading!
