Ku wa Kabiri, ikinyamakuru Puck cyatangaje ko Kennedy, ufite imyaka 71, ateganya kwegura ku buyobozi bwa Lucasfilm mbere y’uko umwaka wa 2025 urangira. Ibinyamakuru bitandukanye byakomeje gutangaza iyo nkuru. Ariko nk’uko byatangajwe n’umuntu ubizi neza, yabwiye CNN ko ayo makuru atari ukuri, yemeza ko “nta kintu gihari ubu.” Iyo byaba ari ukuri koko, itangazo rigenewe rubanda rizatangazwa igihe icyemezo cyafashwe ku mugaragaro, nk’uko uwo muntu yabivuze.

Lucasfilm ntiyasubije ubusabe bwo kugira icyo ibivugaho, ndetse n’umuvugizi wa Disney yanze kugira icyo atangaza kuri iyo nkuru.

Kennedy yinjiye muri Lucasfilm mu 2012 nk’umuyobozi mugenzi wa George Lucas, hanyuma aza kugirwa perezida nyuma y’uko Lucas avuye muri sosiyete nyuma yo kugurwa na Disney ku gaciro ka miliyari 4 z’amadolari muri uwo mwaka.

Kennedy yashimiwe cyane kuba yarazamuye urukurikirane rwa “Star Wars” nyuma yo gutangiza icyiciro gishya cy’imikino nyaburanga. Nubwo iyo trilogy nshya yabaye intsinzi ikomeye ku isoko ry’imbere mu gihugu, buri gice cyagiye gitakaza inyungu, aho “The Force Awakens” ya 2015 yakozwe na J.J. Abrams yinjije miliyoni 936 z’amadolari, igakurikirwa na “The Last Jedi” yo mu 2018 yinjije miliyoni 620, naho “The Rise of Skywalker” yo mu 2019 yinjiza miliyoni 515. N’ubwo ari uko bimeze, iyo trilogy nshya yinjije menshi kurusha trilogy y’amashusho yabanjirije “Star Wars.”

Mu gihe Kennedy yari ku buyobozi, Lucasfilm yasohoye filime nshya ya “Star Wars” buri mwaka kuva mu 2015 kugeza mu 2019, nubwo zagiye zirahembwa bitandukanye. Mu gihe “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” yo mu 2016 yashimiwe cyane kandi ikinjiza miliyoni 532 mu gihugu, filime ya “Solo: A Star Wars Story” yo mu 2018 ntiyakiriwe neza kuko yinjije gusa miliyoni 213, nyamara yari ifite ingengo y’imari ya miliyoni 250, itarimo ayo kwamamaza. “Solo” yabaye filime ya mbere ya “Star Wars” igira igihombo.

Nyuma yo kubona ko filime za “Star Wars” zigenda zitakaza inyungu mu ma sinema, Lucasfilm yahisemo kwibanda kuri serivisi yo gutambutsa amashusho kuri murandasi (streaming), isohora icyiciro cya mbere cya “The Mandalorian” kuri Disney+ muri Ugushyingo 2019, ubwo urubuga rwa Disney+ rwatangiraga. Guhera icyo gihe, Lucasfilm yagiye isohora izindi filime eshanu z’amashusho mazima (live-action), zirimo ibice bibiri byiyongera kuri “The Mandalorian,” “The Book of Boba Fett,” “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” na “Ahsoka.”

Nubwo atari ibirori byose bya Lucasfilm byakiriwe neza — kuko “The Acolyte” yasheshewe muri Kanama nyuma y’igihe gito n’amajwi y’impaka atandukanye — icyo kigo giherutse gusohora filime y’amashusho ivuga kuri “Andor” icyiciro cya kabiri, giteganyijwe gutangira kuri Disney+ ku wa 22 Mata.

Kubera intsinzi y’uruhererekane rwa “The Mandalorian,” Lucasfilm yatangaje mu 2024 ko iri gutegura filime nshya y’iyo nkuru yise “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” ikaba ari filime ya mbere ya “Star Wars” izasohoka kuva mu 2019.
