Rian Johnson has reportedly confirmed that his Star Wars trilogy is still happening, though there aren't any set dates or timelines for the project.
The filmmaker, who directed Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the middle chapter of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, recently sat down for an interview with author Sariah Wilson, who subsequently confirmed on Twitter that Johnson's previously-announced Star Wars trilogy is still in the works. Wilson said it has "no dates or timelines because [Johnson] has other projects going on, but it is happening."

For the most part, news of the project remained dormant after that, with many expecting to hear an update during Disney's Investor Day last year. Johnson's Star Wars trilogy was noticeably absent from the company's announcements, though we did find out about Patty Jenkins' Star Wars movie, which is set to feature an all-new generation of heroic pilots in a "boundary-pushing, high-speed thrill ride."
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron was one of the many Star Wars announcements revealed during the event, which also included news of an Ahsoka Tano Spinoff, Rangers of the New Republic, a Star Wars: Lando Calrissian series, a High Republic series called Acolyte, an anime called Star Wars: Visions, Star Wars: Andor, and Hayden Christensen's return as Darth Vader in Disney+'s Obi-Wan Kenobi series.
For now though, here's a rundown of everything that Star Wars fans have to look forward to this year.
Correction: This story originally said Wilson was a USA Today reporter, not an author.
