Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy has commented on 'Solo's lukewarm reception, revealing that the studio intends to keep recastings outside the Star Wars universe.

Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy commented on Solo’s lukewarm reception by fans, revealing the studio intends to keep recasts outside the Star Wars universe. Talking to Vanity Fair about the franchise's future, Kennedy underlined how Solo’s failure and The Mandalorian’s success indicate Star Wars’ longevity rests on the shoulders of a new cast of characters.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY To Kennedy, Solo’s release was a learning experience. As she explains it, “there should be moments along the way when you learn things. Now it does seem so abundantly clear that we can’t do that.” That leaves the question of how to deal with legacy characters, considering that the Star Wars franchise is already 45 years old, and the original cast is not getting any younger.

The next Star Wars show to hit Disney+ is Obi-Wan Kenobi, starring Ewan McGregor as the Jedi Master and Hayden Christensen as the Sith Lord Darth Vader. Obi-Wan Kenobi premieres with two episodes on May 27, exclusively on Disney+.
