The lack of big Star Wars news during this year’s Disney Plus Day was surprising if we consider the amount of content coming from Lucasfilm next year alone — Disney only shared a heads-up about the Boba Fett documentary and a very slim Obi-Wan Kenobi preview with no actual footage from the series.
While we’re not expecting much from next week’s D23 event, Disney has a habit of dropping massive news there, so stay tuned just in case.
Miguel Fernández is a Spanish student that has movies as his second passion in life. His favorite movie of all time is The Lord of the Rings, but he is also a huge Star Wars fan. However, fantasy movies are not his only cup of tea, as authors like Scorsese, Fincher, Kubrick or Hitchcock have been an obsession for him since he started to understand the language of filmmaking. He is that guy who will watch a black and white movie, just because it is in black and white.
