According to Deadline, Damon Lindelof (of HBO's "Watchmen" and "The Leftovers") is co-writing a new "Star Wars" movie with Justin Britt-Gibson (of "The Strain" and "Counterpart") and Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy — who recently helmed two episodes of the Disney+ series "Ms. Marvel" — is set to direct.

The Hollywood Reporter adds that Lindelof and Britt-Gibson were part of a secret two-week writers room in July, which included Patrick Somerville ("Station Eleven"), Rayna McClendon (Disney+'s upcoming "Willow" series), Andy Greenwald ("Briarpatch"), and others. 

THR's sources say the film will take place after the events of 2019's "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" and is intended as a stand-alone project, but could lead to more movies if successful. While not a continuation of the Skywalker saga, it could feature some characters from the sequel trilogy. Fingers crossed for a stoner comedy featuring Klaud and Babu Frik. 

New episodes of "Star Wars Galactic Pals" are available at StarWarsKids.com. Watch the "Ortolan" episode above and be sure to check out the new "Porgs" episode.
