Podcasts about Lucasfilm

We usually avoid covering breaking news to keep our shows evergreen—but holy purrgil, major changes are coming to the Star Wars and Lucasfilm, and we had to dive in. Tricia Barr (Fangirls Going Rogue / Fangirl Blog) and BJ Priester (Fangirl Blog) join us to unpack two huge developments: the evolution of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and the major Lucasfilm leadership restructuring. Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge in Disneyland is officially expanding beyond a single timeline, with all changes set to debut April 29th. New storylines on Batuu will span multiple eras—from the Galactic Civil War to the Age of the Resistance—adding Luke, Leia, Han, and Darth Vader into the land. Disney is also rotating new artifacts into Dok-Ondar's and transforming First Order Cargo into Black Spire Surplus. The BEST update according to Sarah? John Williams' legendary scores are finally coming to Galaxy's Edge. Music from the first six films—including the Main Title, the Force Theme, and classic motifs like "Han Solo and the Princess"—will now fill the land. Nostalgia matters, and this addition delivers the emotional Star Wars immersion we've have been craving since the land first opened in 2019. All these changes will fully take effect on April 29. And just one day after this news, another bombshell dropped: Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down as president of Lucasfilm after 14 years, returning to producing, while Dave Filoni takes over as President and Chief Creative Officer alongside Lynwen Brennan as Co-President. Kennedy also addressed long-rumored, stalled film projects in a candid Deadline interview, and we discuss in detail. Lucasfilm is entering a bold new era, both in the parks and on screen. We speculate what's to come. What do you think?? Watch the YouTube version here for the best experience. Listen to the podcast episode here.

Disney rarely tells you exactly what it's doing anymore, but that doesn't mean there isn't a plan. This week, Jim Hill and Dan Graney break down why Marvel's latest marketing push feels chaotic on the surface yet deeply intentional underneath, and how that same philosophy is quietly reshaping Lucasfilm and Disney's theme parks. From Avengers teases to Star Wars leadership handoffs, this episode is all about Disney learning how to move forward without hitting the reset button. NEWS • Why Marvel's weekly “stories” for Avengers: Doomsday are designed to invite speculation rather than explain anything • How long-running MCU callbacks from Brave New World and Quantumania may finally be paying off • The Super Bowl factor and why Marvel may be training audiences to pay attention again • Rumors pointing to Peggy Carter and the Fantastic Four playing larger roles than expected • What Marvel's confidence says about its post-multiverse strategy FEATURE • Kathleen Kennedy's planned leadership transition and what it signals about Lucasfilm's future • Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan's split creative-business model and why Disney favors it • Galaxy's Edge loosening its timeline rules to embrace Star Wars nostalgia • How Marvel comics are being used to quietly “duct tape” Star Wars canon back together HOSTS • Jim Hill - IG: @JimHillMedia | X: @JimHillMedia | Website: JimHillMedia.com • Dan Graney - IG: ⁠@thehubbubbery | YouTube: @TheHubbubbery | Website: TheHubbubbery.com FOLLOW • Facebook: JimHillMediaNews • Instagram: JimHillMedia • TikTok: JimHillMedia SUPPORT Support the show and access bonus episodes and additional content at Patreon.com/JimHillMedia.

On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down some of the biggest movie and TV headlines making waves across Hollywood and fandom. We start with an update on Dune: Part Three, as new reports indicate the film's release date is not moving despite speculation. What does this mean for the future of the franchise and Warner Bros.' long-term plans? Kathleen Kennedy also makes headlines with bold comments about the future of Indiana Jones, stating the iconic series will "never be done." We discuss what that could mean for Lucasfilm, legacy characters, and audience fatigue. Meanwhile, Zootopia 2 continues its incredible run by setting a global box-office record, raising questions about Disney animation, sequels, and what audiences are really showing up for. We also dive into comments from Matt Damon and Ben Affleck on shrinking attention spans and how modern audiences consume movies in the streaming era. Finally, we take a look at the latest trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, which teases what's still to come this season and how it connects to the larger Game of Thrones universe.

We're taking a trip to The Bone Temple this week on Breakfast All Day, but don't worry. Ralph Fiennes has great taste in music, it'll be super fun. Here's what we've reviewed lately: 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE. This picks up right where Danny Boyle's "28 Years Later" left off in 2025, but Nia DaCosta's film is very different: thrilling and terrifying in its own way, but also more somber, but also funny ...? Fiennes is insane here. In theaters. THE RIP. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck lead an all-star cast as Miami cops whose team stumbles upon a massive stash of drug money in this twisty thriller. This is the kind of substantial, mid-budget action movie we used to see a lot of in the '80s and '90s. Streaming now on Netflix. THE SECRET AGENT. We knew we wanted to catch up with Brazil's entry in the Oscar international feature category, and this was the perfect time. It just won Golden Globes for best motion picture - non-English language and best actor for Wagner Moura. We admire it but don't love it as much as our fellow critics do. In theaters. Movie News LIVE! Always a good time on Fridays. Among this week's topics were Kathleen Kennedy leaving LucasFilm; "Dune: Part Three" and "Avengers: Doomsday" competing on Dec. 18, aka "Dunesday"; and Matthew McConaughey trademarking his famous phrase, "Alright, alright, alright."

We kick things off with the existential dread of FOLLOW UP and the absolute joy of jury duty. While xAI's Grok is busy getting banned in Malaysia and Indonesia for its CSAM-generating "features," the Senate is unanimously passing the DEFIANCE Act to give us some legal teeth against the deepfake machine. Meta is busy nuking 550,000 Australian accounts to appease regulators, while Roblox's age verification is so broken that a drawing of stubble or a photo of Kurt Cobain can get you into the adult lounge. Moving IN THE NEWS, Meta is trading its $70 billion Metaverse graveyard for a Reality Labs layoff and a pivot to AI hardware, fueled by an "AI infrastructure" buildout that's hiring former Trump advisors. Bandcamp is heroically banning AI "slop," Matthew McConaughey is trademarking his own face to fend off the bots, and ICE's AI hiring tool is such a disaster it's accidentally fast-tracking mall security as "officers." Between self-help gurus charging $99 for chatbot "advice," GM finally settling its driver-spying suit with the FTC, and NASA prepping for a February moon shot while China plans to launch 200,000 satellites into our already crowded orbit, the future looks exactly as messy as we expected.For MEDIA CANDY, we've got Lord of the Rings marathons, the diner-bridge of Starfleet Academy, and the usual joy of streaming price hikes hitting our "Premium" plans. We're tracking the 2025 "In Memoriam" and Gabriel Pagan's exhaustive movie list before sliding into APPS & DOODADS. Jony Ive and Sam Altman are reportedly building an hearing aide called "Sweetpea" to kill your AirPods, Siri is officially Google Gemini's new puppet, and Apple is finally bundling its creative apps into a "Creator Studio" subscription trap. Tesla is making Full Self-Driving a subscription-only Valentine's gift (good luck with that), Ring is rebranding surveillance as a "fire-watching" assistant, and a Chinese app called "Are You Dead?" is the new must-have for the lonely. To cap it off, the internet proved its maturity by using "Words.zip"—an infinite word-search grid—to draw a giant phallus, because of course they did.AT THE LIBRARY features the Anthony Bourdain Reader, the return of Bob in the new Laundry Files book, and Jimmy Carr's guide to happiness, which is apparently cheaper than therapy. Then we descend into THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where the dishwasher-installing, ham-radio-lunching Dave Bittner reveals Disney World has job openings for those of us who spent high school in the AV club. Lucasfilm is finally entering a new era as Kathleen Kennedy steps down, just as Galaxy's Edge admits the original trilogy exists, and we wrap it all up with lock-picking kits and the terrifying realization that Seymour from H.R. Pufnstuf is the ultimate Gen-X fursona.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Gusto - Try Gusto today at gusto.com/grumpy, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

BREAKING NEWS: Kathleen Kennedy's control of Lucasfilm and Star Wars has come to an end. We review some telling highlights from Kathy's exit interview and discuss her Star Wars legacy. With Dave Filoni taking charge of Lucasfilm, does this mean George Lucas will return to the fold? We share our thoughts. Disney revealed a facelift is coming to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland as Original Trilogy characters and situations will be incorporated into the theme park this April. We review all the information about the changes and offer our opinions. Star Wars: Starfighter will feature lightsaber duels and none other than Tom Cruise stopped by the set to jump behind the camera to shoot a sequence. We look at a fresh interview with director Shawn Levy and speculate which characters will be involved in the duel and why. Mark Hamill recently discussed The Force Awakens and the lack of a reunion between Han, Luke and Leia. Find out why such a get together never materialized. Plus, we got interview highlights from Mia Goth, Oscar Isaac and more!

Kathleen Kennedy is officially stepping down from Lucasfilm, and today on The Kristian Harloff Show we break down what this means for the future of Star Wars, Lucasfilm leadership, and the franchise as a whole. From the official exit to Kennedy's own comments on the current status of multiple Star Wars projects, this is a major turning point for one of the most iconic brands in pop culture. We also discuss Kennedy's reflections on the toxic side of fandom, her thoughts on what went wrong with Solo, and how audience expectations and studio decision-making have evolved over the years. What projects are still moving forward? What might be reworked or shelved? And what does this leadership change signal for the next era of Star Wars films and series? In addition, we pivot to DC Studios news as James Gunn responds to reports that The Brave and the Bold could be targeting a 2028 release date, and confirms that the Mister Miracle animated series is officially part of the DCU. Big leadership shifts, franchise strategy updates, and major universe-building conversations all collide in today's episode. Join Kristian and the panel as they analyze the implications, speculate on what comes next, and put these developments into context for both Star Wars and DC fans.

A big news item dropped yesterday: Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down as president of Lucasfilm. Dave Filoni, long-time storyteller of the Star Wars Galaxy is taking her place. Join me as I share my thoughts.

Kathleen Kennedy is officially leaving Lucasfilm after 14 years and Star Wars is entering a brand new era. With Dave Filoni taking over creative control and Linwood Bergman handling the business side, fans are asking the big question. Is Star Wars finally back? We break down the Deadline interview, the future of Star Wars movies, Filoni's creative leash, and what this leadership change really means for the galaxy far far away.

Avengers: Doomsday has OFFICIALLY released 4 Teaser Trailers now, which the Russo Brothers are now encouraging fans to dive deeper on for clues & hidden details! We also get a first look at Sophie Turner as Lara Croft Tomb Raider, Major Star Wars shakeup: Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down as President of Lucasfilm and discuss the week's movie news at large!

The first four teasers have spotlighted major characters including Chris Evans' Steve Rogers/Captain America, Chris Hemsworth's Thor, the return of X-Men icons Patrick Stewart's Professor X and Ian McKellen's Magneto, and James Marsden's Cyclops, along with glimpses of the Fantastic Four (Vanessa Kirby, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn & Ebon Moss-Bachrach), Letitia Wright's Shuri, Winston Duke's M'Baku, Tenoch Huerta's Namor, and more, prompting theories about emotional beats, timeline clues, and narrative setup for Marvel's next epic event. We also discuss the major Star Wars leadership shakeup, with Kathleen Kennedy stepping down as President of Lucasfilm and Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan stepping into new leadership roles — a shift that could signal a new creative era for the franchise. What details can be pieced together by scrubbing every frame of these teasers — and will the third time be the charm for the Tomb Raider franchise?

With the recent news that Kathleen Kennedy will be stepping down as head of Lucasfilm, to be replaced by Dave Filoni, we thought we'd take a look back at his history and address some of the criticisms that we have seen towards the move. In particular, we'll be covering the assertions that Dave Filoni doesn't respect the EU or stories that came before, and that he tends to focus on characters from the animated TV shows to the detriment of wider audiences' experience.

The 2025 season of Star Wars has come to an end and we hope everyone had a great year and happy holidays with family and friends! To start this new year of 2026, Catrina Dennis from The Geeky Waffle and the CEO of Ventress, joins us as we take a fond look back at the Star Wars chapters that closed in the colloquial "Phase 2" and all the personal stories that were created, from ANDOR season 2, Skeleton Crew, Visions Vol. 3, to anniversaries celebrated for Revenge Of The Sith and The Force Awakens, and publishing stories like The High Republic and Legacy Of Vader. It's always a great time to look back and see all the amazing Star Wars we enjoyed!But, as some things end other begins, and with a potential change in leadership at Lucasfilm, this upcoming "Phase 3" promises many more stories to enjoy. However... will some of these stories seem a little too "safe" compared to what we've seen before? We discuss what's coming in 2026 and beyond, from The Mandalorian And Grogu, to Starfighter, to the highly anticipated MAUL: Shadow Lord!2026 looks promising, and as we start this year with enthusiasm and hope for the future, we 're appreciative you continue to join our journey!• • •TRIAD Of The FORCE is a STAR WARS+ podcast hosted by Gus, Nani, & Chase—Puerto Rican and queer creators sharing deep dives, and heartfelt conversations from a galaxy far, far away.

Tom “cam op” Cruise helps film a lightsaber duel in Shawn Levy's, ‘Star Wars: Starfighter'? New leadership at Lucasfilm? The cantina crew light the fuse and discuss these explosive stories, and the nearly impossible mission ahead for these newly anointed masters taking over for master storyteller, super-producer, and visionary business leader, Kathleen Kennedy.    

We review the latest rumors which indicate the time has come for Lucasfilm's Kathleen Kennedy to step down from her leadership role to concentrate on producing films and Dave Filoni will be stepping up to have full creative control of the Star Wars franchise. We look at the pros and cons. We share memories of when Genndy Tartakovsky's Clone Wars microseries premiered as a series of shorts on Cartoon Network back in 2003. A new still photo from The Mandalorian and Grogu was released this week and we look at the budget for the film and speculate on potential box office success. Plus, we dig deep into some Jon Favreau interview quotes for clues, revisit the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, Star Wars in Pop Culture features Stranger Things and more!

She's killed off more loved ones than the Bubonic Plague. She's utterly wrecked what was once the most valuable IP in the world. For 13 years she has brought her venom, her bitterness and her feminism (but I repeat myself) to Lucasfilm and systematically destroyed what used to be the very heart of pop culture. Now, for the fourth or fifth time, she says she is about to step down. Is it too late?

A jaw-dropping Star Wars rumor is making waves across the fandom. Reports claim that Star Wars: Starfighter will feature a lightsaber duel partially shot and directed by Tom Cruise, and on today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down how this could actually happen, why Cruise may be involved behind the camera, and whether this bold creative choice makes sense for Lucasfilm's future. We also cover a packed slate of movie and streaming news. Disney has officially found the two leads for its live-action Tangled, sparking debate over casting choices and remake fatigue. DC fans get a major update as rumors swirl around Sebastian Stan's potential role in The Batman – Part II, and what it could mean for Matt Reeves' expanding Gotham universe. On the streaming side, Disney+ is reportedly rolling out a vertical video feed, raising questions about how platforms are adapting to short-form viewing habits. Meanwhile, Netflix users experienced minor outages that may be connected to the ongoing "Conformity Gate" situation. We also react to the explosive new trailer for The Wrecking Crew starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista. Topics Discussed: Star Wars: Starfighter lightsaber duel reportedly shot by Tom Cruise Live-action Tangled officially casts its two leads Sebastian Stan rumored for a role in The Batman – Part II Disney+ experimenting with vertical video feeds Netflix outages possibly linked to Conformity Gate The Wrecking Crew trailer with Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista Join Kristian Harloff and the crew for reactions, analysis, and unfiltered discussion on the biggest stories in movies, TV, and pop culture. #KristianHarloffShow #StarWars #StarWarsStarfighter #TomCruise #LightsaberDuel #Lucasfilm #Disney #Tangled #BatmanPartII #SebastianStan #DC #DisneyPlus #Netflix #TheWreckingCrew #JasonMomoa #DaveBautista #MovieNews #TVNews #PopCulture SPONSORS: RAYCON: Go to https://www.buyraycon.com/kristian to get 20% off sitewide.
