My latest article arrives over at The Metro, taking a look at what, when and where Rian Johnson’s exciting new Star Wars trilogy could aim its turbolasers.

With the news last week that Lucasfilm and Disney had given The Last Jedi director not one, not two but an entire trilogy of films to tell a new story, fandom was shocked and delighted in equal measure.

With all manner of mishaps and problems surrounding the standalone films and the departure from Episode IX of director Colin Trevorrow, it’s been noticeable that The Last Jedi appears to have smoothly sailed through its production.

Indeed, you could argue that the only stumbling block was the sad and early demise of Carrie Fisher.
