When Disney first announced that it would bring Star Wars back to life with a new sequel trilogy and a range of side stories that introduced us to characters who might not have fit in the Skywalker saga, fans were cautiously optimistic. After all, Disney managed to turn decades of confusing comic book lore into the biggest movie franchise of all time – who’s to say the same company couldn’t revive Star Wars after a few awful prequels?
Unfortunately, the reaction to Disney’s Star Wars output since 2015 has been decidedly mixed. The Force Awakens did little more than copy the formula of A New Hope, Solo: A Star Wars Story failed to say anything interesting about one of the most interesting characters in the series, and let’s not even get into The Last Jedi. The one film that didn’t seem to anger anyone was Rogue One, so of course it’s getting a prequel series on Disney+.
