Daisy Ridley’s New “Star Wars” Film Finds New Writer

Initially expected to be shot immediately after "The Mandalorian & Grogu" production, it seems to have been delayed.

Daisy Ridley’s new Star Wars film has finally found its writer.

What’s Happening:

  • Previously announced to be directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, the Daisy Ridley-led Star Wars project has been long discussed, but with no concrete details attached.
  • The Hollywood Reporter has shared that George Nolfi, the writer behind The Bourne Ultimatum and Ocean’s 12, has been attached to write the new film.
  • Entitled New Jedi Order, the film is set to take place 15 years after the events of The Rise of Skywalker as she mentors a new group of Jedis.
  • There is no timeline for this film going into production, as it seems that Shawn Levy’s Star Wars film will likely begin shooting first.
  • The next Star Wars film to hit theaters will be next year’s The Mandalorian & Grogu.
