The Super Powered Fancast

In what is being described a shocking new development in the Disney empire, the mastermind behind the Marvel Cinematic Universe is preparing to take a trip to a galaxy far far away.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Marvel Studios Chief Kevin Feige is working with Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy on developing a new wave of projects set in the Star Wars universe. According to THR sources, Feige met this summer with Kennedy and co-chairmen Alan Horn and Alan Bergman about stepping into the universe created by George Lucas.

Alan Horn told THR that Kennedy “is pursuing a new era in Star Wars storytelling, and knowing what a die-hard fan Kevin [Feige] is, it made sense for these two extraordinary producers to work on a Star Wars film together.

With the Skywalker Saga closing with the upcoming Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, a new series of stories set in the universe are primed to expand it for a new generation of fans.
