Part 4/8:
The Involvement of Industry Veterans
Attendees and fans alike should note that luminaries such as John Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, Dave Filoni, and Leslie Hedin are involved in overseeing projects like the Ray movie and The Acolyte. Dave Filoni, in particular, has had long-standing responsibilities at Lucasfilm, overseeing universe-building and story consistency. As a result, these projects are not only driven by the new director but also scrutinized and approved by experienced franchise veterans.
