With the release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, some fans may be wondering what’s next for the franchise. Now that Episode 9 is out, will there be an Episode 10 that follows up on any of the loose ends we were left with? Read on to hear what Disney and Lucasfilm have planned next for Star Wars.
Will There be a Star Wars: Episode 10?
As things currently stand, there are no plans for Episode 10. The Rise of Skywalker has been billed as the conclusion not only to the Sequel Trilogy that began with Episode 7’s The Force Awakens but to the entire Skywalker Saga, which includes the Original Trilogy and the Prequel Trilogy. Those nine movies tell one story about the Skywalker family, and now that it is complete, the powers that be are going to let it sit for the time being. George Lucas originally planned for Star Wars to be nine episodes long, and even though the Sequel Trilogy doesn’t follow his original plan because Disney took over the franchise and told a fresh story, his grand vision for the franchise that he created in 1977 has now been achieved.
