Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment WriterThere is no shortage of television shows set in a galaxy far, far away.During Disney and Lucasfilm’s presentation at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, Calif., most of the time was devoted to introducing new series like “Skeleton Crew,” starring Jude Law, and “Andor,” featuring Diego Luna in a prequel to “Rogue One,” as well as long-in-the-works titles like “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” which premieres on May 27.But in contrast to the robust slate of “Star Wars” TV series set for Disney+, the franchise’s feature film landscape has been as desolate as the sands of Tatooine in the wake of 2019’s “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.” That’s surprising, since “Star Wars” is one of Hollywood’s biggest properties and the studio has a trio of untitled space opera movies set to hit theaters around Christmas every other year starting in 2023.

With Star Wars Celebration underway the studio has announced a new “Star Wars” project is coming to Disney+ and will indeed come from the director of the most recent “Spider-Man” trilogy, the last installment earning a whopping $1.8 billion at the global box office. It was announced during the Lucasfilm panel that British actor Jude Law (“Captain Marvel“) will lead a brand new original series set in the “Star Wars” universe from producers Jon Watts, Christopher Ford, Jon Favreau, and Dave Filoni.

Jude Law is coming to a galaxy far far away.
