Patty Jenkins Says ‘Wonder Woman 3’ Is Over “For The Time Being, Easily Forever” & Shares ‘Star Wars: Rogue Squadron’ Update in an article from Deadline
'Although Jenkins won’t be developing a new film for the DCEU, she is working on a movie set in the Star Wars universe. Although the film was removed from the studio’s release schedule in 2022, Jenkins says she’s working on a script for it now.
“So, when I left Star Wars to do Wonder Woman 3, and I started working on that, we talked about, ‘Well, maybe I’ll come back to Star Wars after Wonder Woman 3, so we started a deal for that to happen,” she said. “When Wonder Woman 3 then went away, Lucasfilm and I were like, ‘Oh, we’ve got to finish this deal.’ We finished the deal right as the strike was beginning, so I now owe a draft of Star Wars. So we will see what happens there. Who knows?”
Jenkins said that Lucasfilm has “a hard job in front of them of what’s the first movie they’re going to do,” adding, “They have other directors who have been working, but I am now back on doing Rogue Squadron. We’ll see what happens. We need to get it to where we’re both super happy with it.”
The director said she would “absolutely” be happy to direct a film in the Star Wars universe as she finds “something so beautiful in this world.”
“If I can do something beautiful and do something that serves that audience, I would love to do it,” she added.’

From that I’m guessing there is a very long way to go, but I still hope it happens.
A cool painting from 1977 I saw on reddit. But there was not much other information about it:

A shame that Lucasfilm didn’t keep to their intentions for that “one consistent narrative” in their statement. Or let the Legends stories and other planned projects from the time simply continue. It could have made for some interesting times, and maybe even better quality stories for both canon and legends.
The series is cool and loved playing the DF/JK games, but I do wish there were more Star Wars games that were just dedicated First Person Shooters. I was kind of hoping that I’d just missed or forgot about any other FPS Star Wars games?
Doom! I’ll have a look around to see if someone has modded that with some Star Wars skins!
Is the original Dark Forces, and the Republic Commando game, the only dedicated first person shooters in Star Wars? I don’t really count the Battlefront games (they have have the 3rd person and ship & vehicle perspectives).
Just the 2 FPS?
I really thought there would be more, and so disappointing that Respawn have stopped work on their FPS game.
This is awesome, and what really hits the spot is reading through the ‘Our love of the Original Trilogy - seeing them for the first time - and wanting others to be able to experience them’ section.
I’ve been making my way through some of the other Index threads, but this is one I’ve been looking forward to, mainly for the “The Star Wars Universe: OT & EU - Life & Lore before the Prequels”, canon, and discrepancies content.
“Star Wars” for 1977 version.
“A New Hope” or the “Maclunkey” version for the Special Editions.
Seriously amazing index, but why do some of the threads have images for them, and other don’t?
This is awesome, even for someone like me who doesn’t like that much outside the OT
Thanks for reminding us that Detours existed.
Given the some badness of the some of content they have released, it makes me wonder how bad Detours is that they still won’t release it, even as filler for Disney+
Awesome job and also very useful.
Thanks to the Prequels!

Nice thread! I’ve played the game but never read the books. I’ve seen online debates about them, but I think I’ll pick up the first book and see for myself.
I’ve been looking forward to this. So happy that it will actually happen and see a release!

Star Wars Outlaws: Creative Director Julian Gerighty Breaks Down the New Story Trailer - at the official Star Wars website.
'Adventure? Excitement? A Jedi craves not these things. But a scoundrel sure does.
Star Wars Outlaws, the highly anticipated open-world game coming August 30 for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC, promises to let fans live their best scoundrel life as Kay Vess, an up-and-comer in the galaxy’s underworld. With the arrival of a new story trailer — featuring the reveal of major villains, potential allies, and more — hype for the first Star Wars game of its kind continues to build. To learn a bit more, StarWars.com had a virtual sitdown with creative director Julian Gerighty of Ubisoft’s Massive Entertainment, discussing Star Wars Outlaws’ threatening new crime syndicate, the “dream opportunity” of creating a bounty hunter, and how anyone who’s ever “felt trapped” can identify with Kay.’
I hope it’ll happen, its a be a bit of no brainer to me, as a film or a series.
Squadrons ?
A bit too like a flight simulator for me, like the old X-Wing & TIE Fighter games, but all were still fun. I prefer the more arcade feel of RS games, or anything a bit like the Battle Pod or SW Arcade.
Maybe if the Rogue Squadron film or series ever happens we’ll also see a tie-in game?
I love some of the older sets and vehicles, but they are very much overpriced. The MOC videos give some nice ideas for those of us on a budget or limited space.

I just wish the Rogue Squadron trilogy got a remaster/re-release on modern consoles.
Absolutely, or even new RS games.
