Rogue One Creator Working On New Star Wars Idea

Via Screenrant.com:

John Knoll, who created the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story concept, is working on another anthology idea in the Star Wars universe. Lucasfilm’s first foray into anthology films proved to be a massive success. Rogue One debuted to mostly positive reviews and went on to gross well over $1 billion dollars at the box office. Characters such as Donnie Yen’s spiritual warrior Chirrut Imwe and Alan Tudyk’s sarcastic droid K-2SO are beloved by the fans. The groundwork has been laid for more anthology films that travel outside the Skywalker Saga, focusing on new and exciting characters that fans have yet to meet.

Rogue One creator Knoll is already hard at work. At a recent panel, he revealed that he has been working on refining a pitch for a new anthology film.

During a Rogue One Super Session as part of the National Association of Broadcasters Show, Knoll told THR,

“I have another idea I’ve been tinkering with. It’s maybe 75 percent there. I haven’t pitched it to [Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy]. It’s another Star Wars thing…There’s no reason to think Disney is going to stop wanting to make Star Wars movies if there’s quality and there’s interest. It has unlimited potential. It has a huge number of characters, worlds … It’s a massive playground.”
