Part 4/8:
Fast forward to early 2024, and the situation appears unchanged. The latest reports confirm that Steven Knight—who was brought on to write the screenplay—has yet to complete a draft. Industry insiders from Making Star Wars have pointed out that the script is still in progress and that Knight has had scheduling conflicts, partly due to his commitments to other projects like the Peaky Blinders movie. This lack of progress raises questions about whether the film will stay on schedule for its projected release around the 2026 holiday season.
