Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment Writer The past, present and future of Star Wars was on ample display on Friday at the Star Wars Celebration fan convention, as Lucasfilm unveiled the most robust look yet at the company’s plans for the hallowed franchise. As studio chief Kathleen Kennedy revealed three new feature films and first looks at four upcoming TV series, Lucasfilm made clear it aims to test just how far it can stretch the Star Wars galaxy: creatively, logistically and even historically. Starting with “The Phantom Menace” and concluding with “The Rise of Skywalker,” the previous nine “Star Wars” movies have all taken place within a roughly 70-year timeline, straddling the climactic Battle of Yavin in “A New Hope” that has served as the official fulcrum point for the franchise for six decades. Every live-action and animated spinoff TV series has unfolded within that timeframe, including the shows launched on Disney+: “The Mandalorian,” “The Book of Boba Fett,” “Andor,” “The Bad Batch” and the upcoming shows “Ahsoka” and “Skeleton Crew.” (“Visions,” an animated anthology series launched in 2021, exists outside of Star Wars canon.)

“Succession” Season 4, the HBO series looked the other way in Episode 2, “Rehearsal.” Throughout the hour, the trio of Roy children gone rogue – Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Shiv (Sarah Snook) and Roman (Kieran Culkin) – debate whether they should join some other contentious Waystar board members in blocking dad Logan’s (Brian Cox) sale of his media empire to Swedish internet gazillionaire Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgård).They state repeatedly that it’s just a play to get more money for the family business. True as far as that goes. Yet Shiv and Ken, especially, seem to relish every opportunity it gives them to stick it to the old man.

The Record.In it, the singer-songwriters , Lucy Dacus, and Julien Baker distill in just under four minutes the whole essence of friendships in your twenties—and they do so without a massive production budget, actors, or a sweeping narrative arc. In fact, the whole thing was filmed on an iPhone in a little over a day. The bandmates took turns filming each other doing "hooligan shit" (Baker's words) around Los Angeles, with stops at the Santa Monica Pier amusement park, an arcade, and a museum. While the concept ("women laughing") may sound contrived, their genuine love for each other transcends the screen, infecting the viewer with secondhand joy.
