Just take a look at what they’re doing with Marvel: the super light-hearted Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant-Man films are set in the same universe as the likes of Daredevil and Jessica Jones, which deal with some incredibly mature topics.

Disney is always looking for new ways to mine their properties, so it seems like it will only be a matter of time before they announce a Star Wars live-action series.
Star Wars podcast producers and enthusiasts Justin Kozisek and Marjorie Carvalho legally bought Rey, one of the new Star Wars characters, for less than $10 in an Iowa Walmart.
Collecting action figures is a pretty big hobby, so when you see a new figure, especially for Star Wars: The Force Awakens that you didn’t know about, you are going to get all excited, take pictures and post it to all your friends. One of these is “Star Wars 1313”, which looked to be an incredible game for fans. We definitely want to.
Star Wars: Rogue One is due for release on December 16, 2016, and stars Felicity Jones, Riz Ahmed, Ben Mendelsohn, Forest Whitaker, and Donnie Yen. But so far, EA found out that in just three weeks, players have already destroyed more than 442 million vehicles and scored more than 11.9 million jump pack kills. And to be perfectly honest, we have changed the order of those at the last minute, so that’s not the intention at all. And as we sit here, giddily awaiting the release, we are reminded that the future of the Saga does not begin and end with this new movie. Glad to hear that these movies will become a bit more flexible with the timeline once these two are wrapped. Kathleen Kennedy also elaborated later in the interview that they do not feel beholden to creating a universe that moves forward in a linear fashion.

I’m the first fan who will tell you that these movies should truly be standalones. However, Kennedy objected to it and the other anthology films being prequels. A second Story movie will follow a young Han Solo in one of the hottest casting calls of current times (who DOESN’T want to be Han??!).
