There are at least 7 more 'Star Wars' movies in the works — here's everything we know
Lucasfilm
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" launched a franchise reboot in 2015 and it's not going anywhere soon.
Between multiple TV projects, franchise movies, and spin-offs, it feels like we're going to return to a galaxy far, far away once a year for the rest of our lives. In addition to "Solo," in theaters May 25, Lucasfilm has "Episode IX," another spin-off, and a whole new trilogy.
Here's everything "Star Wars" fans can expect to see on the big screen.
A Han Solo spin-off movie is coming this month called "Solo."
Lucasfilm
The movie originally featured Chris Miller and Phil Lord as directors. In June 2017, after principal photography on the film had already started, Lucasfilm announced the two left due to "creative differences."
Ron Howard came in to replace the directors.
The movie stars Alden Ehrenreich as Han Solo.
Disney/Lucasfilm
The rest of the cast includes Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke ("Game of Thrones", Thandie Newton ("Westworld"), Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Donald Glover ("Atlanta") as Lando Calrissian. Paul Bettany is playing a crime boss named Dryden Vos.
