---

Heard any good Star Wars news lately? Wow today this week has been incredible for Star Wars news! First we get the Solo trailer, then the announcement of another series of films coming from David Benioff and D.B. Weiss from Game of Thrones fame.

Here's some additional info mentioned on the Disney Investor conference call today regarding what they might be doing or pursuing in the Star Wars galaxy.

Iger made the announcement during an investor call when asked about Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss’ involvement in a new series of Star Wars films. Iger said Benioff and Weiss did not express an interest in working on a Star Wars television series, but instead wanted to develop multiple films based on a moment in Star Wars mythology.

“Their interest was in creating a series of films that are Star Wars-based, and we’ve actually been talking to them for a long time,” Iger said. “They’re focused on a point in time in Star Wars mythology, and we’re taking it from there.

Looks like they're sticking with some known Star Wars mythology rather than creating their own. So let the speculation begin!
