Taika Waititi Star Wars project script by Tony McNamara

After a long wait, Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy has finally given an update on Taika Waititi’s Star Wars film, which had previously been on hold.

During Star Wars Celebration 2025 (via ScreenRant), Kennedy revealed that Tony McNamara (Poor Things, The Favourite) is officially writing the script for Waititi’s Star Wars project.

Kennedy said, “Taika is on Taika time… I’ve just continually said to him, look, when you feel that you’re ready and you can really devote the time, we’re going to do it. We’ll be waiting… I’m just hoping we get there. That will be a great Star Wars movie.”

Kennedy also revealed a brand-new project titled Star Wars: Starfighter, which will be directed by Shawn Levy, star Ryan Gosling, and is scheduled for a May 2027 release.

What Star Wars movies are currently in development at Lucasfilm?

Lucasfilm has confirmed the following Star Wars movies are currently in development:

  • Dawn of the Jedi
  • New Jedi Order with Daisy Ridley
  • Shawn Levy’s untitled movie starring Ryan Gosling
  • Taika Waititi’s untitled movie
  • Simon Kinberg’s trilogy

Back in 2023, during the TIFF Tribute Awards, Waititi shared some “disappointing” news while referencing Shawn Levy’s upcoming Star Wars film: “Unlike me, let’s hope he can finish his Star Wars movie.”

The release date for Taika Waititi’s Star Wars film is yet to be announced (TBA).
