Right here We Go Once more… Rey Film Allegedly “On Maintain”…

Rumors are spreading (the supply appears to be DanielRPK on X who has a blended monitor document) that the Rey film is now on maintain. As a result of they nonetheless don’t have any script in spite of everything this time and the remedies by author Steven Knight have been by no means met with approval by Kathleen Kennedy.

Make of that what you’ll… the supply appears to be somebody who at occasions is correct about issues, different occasions not a lot. However one factor is for certain: the film that was supposed to start out filming in 2024 won’t start filming this yr.

If the upper ups at Disney have some sense left  – and earlier than you say something, they appear to have, given what we all know in regards to the manufacturing of Inside Out 2 and simply hours in the past it was revealed that Disney eliminates the CCO of their animation division, the animation studio that introduced the world such great flops like Unusual World and Want. Jennifer Lee, the now former CCO, says she needs to give attention to filmmaking full time as an alternative, and she is going to work on the following two Frozen films… so she nonetheless has a job (on paper), however is not in command of animation (Lee was mainly the Dave Filoni of Disney animation). Anyway, so if they’ve some sense left Disney will give the Rey film the Rian Johnson Star Wars trilogy therapy. They have to understand how excessive the probabilities are {that a} film by an activist feminist director and a sequel to the sequels will bomb spectacularly. And Kennedy could have performed her final trump card with The Acolyte which was an outright catastrophe on Disney+. They let her do that pet challenge of hers… and it really harmed Star Wars. This after all after Indiana Jones 5 solely not changing into the most important Disney film flop of all time as a result of The Marvels managed to carry out even worse.

Poor Daisy – she deserves higher
