See the official announcement on starwars.com.
The film is very much is pre-production so nothing has been filmed yet which, unlike the Han Solo movie
That movie got a big time Hollywood director in Ron Howard the come in and finish the film off, and reshoot much of the movie.
With that in mind who could come in to direct Episode Ix?
How about Ron Howard? He's already in the fold, or even better Steven Spielberg, he's always said he'd like to do a Star Wars movie?
JJ Abrams must be in with a shot after the fantastic job on Star Wars: The Force Awakens, or how about Guillermo del Toro to bring a darker twist to what could be a darker movie, and talking of dark how about Blade Runner 2049 director Denis Villeneuve.
Ridley Scott could do a good job and bring an interesting twist to the series and finally a man who has been in the Star Wars universe for many years, how about giving Lawrence Kasdan a shot?
I am sure it wont be long before we hear who will take the Episode IX directors chair, until then we can keep on guessing, but whoever it is they need to wrap up a 40 year long story, not an easy talk!
Fans are divided over the news that @colintrevorrow will no longer be directing Star Wars: Episode IX. https://t.co/4bPgmZ9O6z
