The development of the Star Wars gaiden has been stopped
Since the release of "Solo: A Star Wars Story", the box office performance has not been satisfactory except for the mediocre reputation. As a result, the film's producer, lucasfilm, announced a moratorium on all Star Wars gaiden films. These include the highly anticipated obi-wan film and the bounty hunter boba fett film.
This decision, no doubt, has to do with the weak performance of "Solo: A Star Wars Story" at the box office. Film earned $84.4 million in its first weekend box office, won the $192.8 million at the domestic box office in four weeks (in global box-office receipts for $339.5 million), far less than other Star Wars movie box office. And the movie has a fairly mediocre reputation, the worst in the franchise. As things stand, lucasfilm will focus on Star Wars 9 and the upcoming Ryan Johnson Star Wars trilogy.
According to foreign media reports, lucasfilm had hoped to postpone the release of "Solo: A Star Wars Story" from May to December, but was rejected by its parent company, Disney. And in order not to interfere with the avengers 3's promotional plans, ranger has not received an additional budget for its promotion. These two factors also influence the global box office of the film to some extent. At present, the staff of the obi-wan project of Star Wars gaiden has been completely suspended. Although reports revealed the wolverine 3 director James mann golder and the bounty hunter boba fett usual timeslot had approached, but it also is the ranger solo: Star Wars gaiden release before the event.
Right now, lucasfilm's main focus is "Star Wars: episode 9" and the next trilogy, in which the war is expected to end with the end of ray's story.
