Upcoming 'Star Wars' movie rumoured to focus on Sith planet Exegol

Lucasfilm

With the future of Star Wars movies up in the air, we scramble for any new bits of information about what comes next. The latest rumour we've heard talks about the movie reportedly taking place on the Sith planet Exegol. And the film will reportedly have Sleight filmmaker J.D. Dillard at the helm alongside Luke Cage and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. writer Matt Owens. This movie, however, doesn't have any connection with the announced Star Wars trilogy from Rian Johnson or the movie pitched by Marvel head Kevin Feige. 

We don't know if and when this project might happen, especially with Lucasfilm previously saying they will concentrate on TV shows. But if this movie does push through, it could answer some questions left by the last Star Wars film, The Rise of Skywalker.
