Gene Maddaus Senior Media WriterCalifornia is getting into the “Star Wars” business, with the state committing $20.9 million in tax subsidies for a new Disney+ series called “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew.”The recent “Star Wars” films have been shot in the United Kingdom, where they receive government subsidies.

Zack Sharf How many times have you heard a TV showrunner or actor describe his or her series as a six-to-10 hour movie? That’s how Anthony Mackie billed “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” (it feels like a “six or eight-hour movie,” he said), while Ewan McGregor described “Obi-Wan Kenobi” as “one big movie” that “just happens to be split up into these episodes.” Well, “The Boys” showrunner Eric Kripke says enough is enough. Speaking to Vulture, Kripke expressed frustration over streaming series being designed as elongated movies and not episodic television.“The downside of streaming is that a lot of filmmakers who work in streaming didn’t necessarily come out of that network grind,” Kripke said.

“Avatar: The Way of Water” broke viewership records when it debuted online in May, but if you saw the film in front of showings of Disney-Pixar’s “Lightyear,” you may have noticed it looked a little different. To explain: the end of the “Avatar: The Way of Water” teaser trailer features a big hero moment: Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), on the back of aquatic creature, rising up out of the water (the creature has wings). Over Jake’s shoulder is a serious-looking assault weapon.

The season one finale of Disney+/Lucasfilm’s Obi-Wan Kenobi drew a five-day Wednesday through Sunday audience of 1.8 million U.S. households, which is 20% higher than the Wednesday through Sunday five-day pull for The Book of Boba Fett finale, which clocked 1.5M U.S. households.

Well before “Obi-Wan Kenobi” became the series it is today and debuted on Disney+, the original idea at Lucasfilm was to tell the story in a feature film. For years, the “Obi-Wan Kenobi” feature film was in development, but nothing ever came to be, largely because “Solo: A Star Wars Story” derailed the idea of having a bunch of spinoff films.
