It has been a big week for star wars fans with the release date for star wars episode 8 and also the title of the first spin-off film was revealed.

We found out this week that star wars episode 8 directed by rian Johnson will come out in May 2017. I am a fan of his other big film looper and I think he may be the perfect choice for what I expect to be a darker film. I first want to see jj Abrams star wars film before I get too anticipated for this film.

Also big news is that the first spin-off film has been given the title of Rogue 1 and has a December 2016 release date. The film will star theory of everything actress felicity Jones, now I am a big fan Of her performance in that film and if the rumour of her being a young princess Leia then I think she will be the perfect fit. The film will be directed by Gareth Edwards, I was a fan of Godzilla and I can see him doing this dark film with young rebels and bounty hunters.

I am a big star wars fan and I am so anticipating these films.
