Unmade & Canceled Star Wars Movies & TV Shows!
The Star Wars franchise has a huge, immersive world filled with characters and amazing stories, but there are always ideas that don't make it to the big or small screen. From iconic films to highly anticipated TV Shows, many Star Wars projects haven't gotten a greenlight from Disney!
Who is Responsible For Creating Star Wars?
We have George Lucas to thank for one of the greatest franchises in movie and TV history! But even though the story has been continuing under the direction of Lucasfilm and Disney, many projects have never happened!
What Are Some Cancelled or Unmade Star Wars Movies?
Fans will be sad to learn about these unmade Star Wars Movies, or canceled Star Wars movies. There are a few projects, that many had hoped to see:
- Star Wars: Episode IX - Duel of the Fates by Colin Trevorrow.
- Boba Fett's Solo Star Wars Movie (featuring bounty hunter Boba Fett).
- Mos Eisley Spaceport Movie.
- Star Wars: Rise and Fall of Jabba the Hutt.
How Could The Unmade Star Wars Prequels Be So Different?
It is incredible to think about, but before the first Star Wars prequel trilogy even came out, George Lucas had a completely different vision. He planned to showcase the Clone Wars and the origin of the Jedi Knights! In the end, it evolved dramatically over the years and brought a whole new look to the Franchise.
What About Canceled TV Shows That Never Hit the Airwaves?
Fans of Star Wars TV shows are surely upset that they didn't get the chance to watch some amazing series that were put on hold, even before they aired! Some that were Canceled are:
- Star Wars: Underworld, a story that focuses on characters including Boba Fett and Han Solo during the days when the Empire was emerging.
- Star Wars: Rangers of the New Republic which was expected to have connections to Star Wars: The Mandalorian and focus on the New Republic, and even introduce some well-known Star Wars characters.
Why Were Some Star Wars Projects Scrapped or Put On Hold?
Star Wars projects can fall apart for various reasons. The most popular cause is budget, such as when the production of Star Wars: Underworld could not be made for reasons of cost. But sometimes it has to do with major story or production changes.
