As if our weeks aren’t busy enough with Mando Monday’s, Making Tracks on Tuesdays, The Mandalorian on Friday’s and Good Morning Tatooine on Sunday nights, along with a slew of news inbetween, it’s looking like Thursday is going to be another busy, busy day for Star Wars fans as Deadline reveal that this Thursday is set to see more announcements from Disney regarding new Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars projects.

Disney on December 10 will announce its upcoming slate. While the studio will solidify what Deadline revealed recently — that the Tom Hanks-starrer Pinocchio, Peter Pan and the Emma Stone-starrer Cruella will bypass movie theaters to become Disney+ releases — the studio will also announce new projects from Marvel, Lucasfilm and Pixar that will encompass TV as well as theatrical. It will be a gesture toward not abandoning the exhibitors. The WarnerMedia guys can perhaps make the same case – they took the beating releasing Tenet in the summer, and will provide a stream of films during the lean months of 2021 while other studios have abandoned the turf – but I’m not sure it has been received as the one-off plan it is purported to be.

With the current furore surrounding the shift of 2021 Warner Brothers films, 17 in total, to HBO Max in the States it will be interesting to see how Disney deal and reveal their news. Either way, with recent rumours of the Kenobi series starting to shoot in January, the Cassian series already underway, the Bad Batch announced, the Rian Johnson trilogy, the Leslye Headland series, the Taika Waititi film and Boba Fett and Ahsoka Tano series all hotly tipped to be happening it could be a banner day for the saga.
