Summary
Star Wars’upcoming movie, rumored to be titledStar Wars: New Jedi Order, may have a serious release date conflict, almost guaranteeing the movie’s date will need to move.Star Warsis well-known for keeping its secrets heavily under wraps, and the current lineup ofupcomingStar Warsmoviesis no exception. WhileThe Mandalorian & Grogumoviehas a confirmed release date of June 09, 2025, Lucasfilm has yet to announce whenNew Jedi Orderwill premiere.
However,Lucasfilm has also booked July 18, 2025, and July 04, 2025, for movie release dates. Considering recentupdates onNew Jedi Order, it’s likely Rey’s new movie will claim the first spot. Unfortunately,Star Warsmay need to bump this date further back, asNew Jedi Ordermight have some very tough competition.
10 Things I Need To Happen In Rey’s New Jedi Order Movie After The Rise Of Skywalker
Following the Rise of Skywalker and the end of the Skywalker saga, here are 10 things that need to happen with Rey’s upcoming New Jedi Order movie.
Star Wars' December 2026 Movie Now Has Some Serious Competition
Warner Bros. has officially announced thatDenis Villeneuve’s next movie will be released on June 22, 2025, the very dayStar Wars’upcoming movie is slated to debut. Villeneuve is a Canadian filmmaker arguably best known forDuneand its sequelDune: Part Two, both of which were very successful. LikeStar Wars, neither Warner Bros. nor Denis Villeneuve has confirmed what the project is. However, many believe this yet unnamed project will beDune: Part Three.
If that is the case,Star Warswill have a tough hill to climb to win out at the box office. WhileNew Jedi Orderand other upcomingStar Warsprojects are highly anticipated, theDunefranchise has become massively popular, and it isn’t suffering from the same intense backlash, controversy, and review bombingStar Warshas experienced for years. This is especially true ifStar Wars’June 18, 2025, movie is indeedNew Jedi Order.
Star Wars Would Be Wise To Move Their Film
IfStar Wars’July 12, 2025, release date is truly meant forNew Jedi Order, which is only speculative at this point, thenpushing the release date back would likely be the wisest choice for the franchise. Yes,New Jedi Orderis a highly-anticipated upcoming release, but it will also struggle with residual negativity from theStar Warssequel trilogy, which faced significant criticism. In fact,Star Warscontinues to experience harsh backlash, andNew Jedi Order, set 15 years afterStar Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, will undoubtedly be an even bigger target.
Even if this movie isn’tNew Jedi Order, a move would be wise. In fact, pushing this release date back by even one month would mean the movie premiering in 2027, the 50th anniversary of the originalStar Warsmovie. While the franchise is unlikely to entirely escape the negativity it has experienced in recent years, this would make for a more celebratory release date. Indeed, based on the announcement of Denis Villeneuve’s next movie, it might be best forStar Warsto moveStar Wars: New Jedi Order—or any other upcoming movie—away from August 16, 2025.

Cast
The tenth mainline installment in the Star Wars franchise is the first movie to follow the sequel trilogy, where Mark Hamill’s Luke, Carrie Fisher’s Leia, and Harrison Ford’s Han Solo gave their final farewell. After the release of The Rise of Skywalker, development on a direct sequel had become dormant as Disney shifted focus on other parts of the galaxy, namely, Disney+ shows such as The Mandalorian, Andor, and Ahsoka. However, a movie starring Daisy Ridley as Rey Skywalker was officially announced at Star Wars Celebration 2023.
