Breaking: Rian Johnson to write and direct Star Wars: Episode VIII!

In a major update to the future of the Star Wars saga on the big screen, Deadline is reporting that Brick, Looper and The Brothers Bloom helmer Rian Johnson is making plans to write and direct Star Wars: Episode VIII. Although the outlet is also reporting that he'll direct Star Wars: Episode IX, TheWrap claims that Johnson will only provide a treatment for the saga-finale and that a director for that final film has not yet been decided on. We'll update with official word as soon as it's available.

Johnson joins a seemingly ever-growing slate of top directors that are setting lightspeed coordinates for a galaxy far, far away. J.J. Abrams is currently filming Star Wars: Episode VII while both Gareth Edwards (Godzilla, Monsters) and Josh Trank (Chronicle) are planning to helm solo films. The plan is for a new Star Wars film to hit every year beginning with Episode VII on December 18, 2015.

Johnson took to Twitter as news of the deal broke, sharing his thoughts on the announcement via the below video clip from Phil Kaufman's 1983 film The Right Stuff. (Please be aware, the clip does contain some strong language).

Star Wars: Episode VIII is ‘much darker’ in tone, says John Boyega

Whether you savored every minute of Star Wars: The Force Awakens or were raging at every plot hole, both fans and detractors seem to agree on one thing: John Boyega rocked. The 23-year-old English actor’s performance as Stormtrooper-turned-hero Finn was a highlight of the movie, and now the fan community has a year and a half to debate what Finn’s trajectory in the universe will be once Rian Johnson’s Star Wars: Episode VIII arrives in the summer of 2017. Will he become a Jedi? Will Finn and Rey hook up? Will Finn and Poe hook up? The possibilities are endless, though Boyega confirms to Vogue that, much like The Empire Strikes Back, the middle chapter in the sequel trilogy will head towards the dark side.

“[We’re] just starting work on ‘Star Wars VIII,’ the next film, so I’m back to keeping secrets again,” Boyega said. “It’s great. Much darker, but we’re very excited.”

As for whether his injuries sustained in battle with Kylo Ren will require any cybernetic enhancements, we’re not sure, but the actor is certain there will be a lot more fighting next time.

“No, for [Force Awakens] we really just took it scene by scene, there wasn’t a huge regime,” Boyega continues. “My part in the next film will be much more physical so I might be in the gym a bit more.”

Star Wars: Episode VIII delayed until December 2017

The saga will be continuing a little later than originally planned. Rian Johnson‘s Star Wars: Episode VIII, which was planned for release on May 26, 2017, will instead arrive nearly seven months later. The studio has had Episode VIII delayed until December 15, 2017. Jumping in to claim the original May release date will be Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.

The move to have Episode VIII delayed follows the extraordinary success of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which was the first Star Wars movie to premiere in December. In the popular holiday moviegoing corridor, it smashed numerous records, including biggest domestic and global debuts of all time as well as the biggest domestic second and third weekends, en route to becoming the highest-grossing domestic release of all time with over $861 million and the third-biggest global release ever with $1.887 billion.

Production officially begins on Star Wars: Episode VIII

You’ll never see the ending of Star Wars, and there’s no better way to be reminded of the dominance of the franchise than a Walt Disney Company quarterly earnings call. Speaking about the profitability of Star Wars: The Force Awakens and its merchandise, CEO Bob Iger revealed that not only has production begun on Star Wars: Episode VIII, but also that work on Star Wars: Episode IX is underway too.

“Filming of Star Wars: Episode VIII, the next chapter of the legendary saga, has just commenced and it will be in theaters December 2017. And production of Episode IX, a 2019 release, has also begun.”

Actor John Boyega took to Twitter to reveal how he marked the beginning of filming for the movie.








Iger went on to speak about the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, saying filming is almost finished, a bit of a surprise since production began back in September.

“Filming of Rogue One is virtually completed and we absolutely love what we’ve seen so far.”

He went on to confirm that the planned Han Solo movie, written by Lawrence Kasdan & Jon Kasdan and to be directed by Phil Lord & Chris Miller, is still set to debut in May 2018. This may surprise some given Star Wars: Episode VIII‘s recent move to December, which appears to be the home for Star Wars for the foreseeable future.

Millennium Falcon photos from the Star Wars: Episode VIII set

Daily Mail has posted some interesting Millennium Falcon photos from the Star Wars: Episode VIII set at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire.
