Star Wars Episode 9: what’s the release date?
December 20, 2019.
The film was originally set to be released on May 24, but production issues in August and September 2017 – including director and screenwriter changes – has pushed the film’s schedule back by six months.
Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker himself Mark Hamill is counting down to the movie:
So far we haven’t seen a trailer, but it’s claimed that it could act as the first introduction to Luke Skywalker’s return as a force ghost after he seemingly perished at the end of the last film.
YouTuber Mike Zeroh claims: “What’s really exciting involving the teaser trailer has to do with the format and exactly how they will be marketing the movie.
What is the title of Episode 9?
The next instalment is called The Rise of Skywalker, as confirmed with the release of a teaser trailer in April 2019.
Who’s directing Episode 9?
J.J. Abrams
Colin Trevorrow – the man behind the $1bn-making blockbuster Jurassic World – was set to direct but crashed out of the project in September to be replaced by The Force Awakens director J.J. Abrams.
Speaking to Empire in September 2019 Abrams spoke of taking over from Rian Johnson, who helmed The Last Jedi.
“I never found myself trying to repair anything,” he said of possibly undoing some of Johnson’s bold decisions from the last instalment. “If I had done VIII, I would have done things differently, just as Rian would have done things differently if he had done VII.
“But having worked on television series, I was accustomed to creating stories and characters that then were run by other people.”
He added: “If you’re willing to walk away from the thing that you created and you believe it’s in trustworthy hands, you have to accept that some of the decisions being made are not gonna be the same that you would make. And if you come back into it, you have to honour what’s been done.”
Talking more about the process of creating episode 9 in a new feature with EW, Abrams says: “We had more reshoots on Episode VII than this one. We had more story adjustments on VII than this one. We didn’t know if these characters would work, if the actors would be able to carry a Star Wars movie. There were a lot of things we didn’t know.
“On this, we knew who and what worked, and everyone is doing the best work I’ve ever seen anyone do. But the ambition of this movie is far greater than Force Awakens. What we set out to do was far more challenging. Everything is exponentially larger on this.”
Who wrote the script?
In August 2017, Jack Thorne – most famous for working with J.K. Rowling on the stage play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child – began rewriting the untitled Star Wars Episode IX, according to The Hollywood Reporter. In September 2017 it was reported that the film was now being rewritten by the Oscar-winning screenwriter of Argo, Chris Terrio, and J.J. Abrams – meaning Thorne has presumably been replaced.
When did filming start?
In an interview on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, J.J. Abrams confirmed that shooting started towards the end of July 2018 – and that the script had been finished. “We have a script, which is a big deal for me,” he said. “It starts shooting end of July. Sometimes having the script in advance is something I haven’t always been lucky enough to have.”
