It ’s been a bit difficult to immobilise down whichStar Warsprojects are really happening over the last few years , butKathleen Kennedy’sStar Warsmovies updateprovided well more insight . Among the movie confirm to be in the works is James Mangold ’s prequel movie , rumored to be titledStar Wars : Dawn of the Jedi .

picayune is known aboutDawn of the Jedicurrently , although , as the rumor title suggests , it is thought to be an stock account for the Jedi .

Star Wars Is Introducing Some Subtle Wriggle-Room For Jedi History

Canon Established In The Last Jedi In Primed To Change

The Last Jediestablished that Ahch - To , the island on which Luke Skywalker had deport himself , was the location of the very first Jedi Temple . However , a sword - newStar Warsbook has just confirmed that is n’t needfully the case . InStar Wars Complete Locations New Edition , written by Jason Fry , Emily Shkoukani , Kristin Lund , Simon Beecroft , Kerrie Dougherty , and James Luceno , it explains :

" Jedi scholars disaccord on the localisation of the Order ’s first temple , making cases for Coruscant , Jedha , and Ossus as well as worlds shroud in myth , such as Tython and Ahch - To . "

With so little known aboutDawn of the Jediat this time , this change pass on the door astray open for the origin news report of the Jedi , which is so much more exciting .

Why Is Star Wars Backing Out Of Ahch-To As The First Jedi Temple?

The Possibilities Are Now Wide Open For This Jedi Origin Story

Dawn of the Jediwas already utterly set to be a thrilling newfangled add-on toStar Warsmovies and TV showsbecause it is basically entirely unexplored territory in terms of what has been shown on CRT screen inStar Warscanon . While know that the chronicle of Ahch - To was likely to be front and center , it is so much more exciting to not have intercourse what exactly will be disclose about the Jedi in the movie . For my part , I would frankly be thrilled if Coruscant was explored as part of this inception level .

That could cause some persistence issues of its own , giventhe Coruscant Jedi Templewas in reality ramp up on a Sith shrine , but it would nevertheless be incredible to see more about that history demonstrate on screen . Ultimately , Mangold ’s motion-picture show may terminate up confirming Ahch - To as the honest emplacement anyway , which would no doubt be riveting as well . At least for now , though , thisStar Wars : The Last Jediretcon has left the door astray exposed forStar Wars’Jedi origin movie , and I could n’t be more worked up .
