John Boyega Advocates Expanded Universe Revival to Reshape Star Wars Sequels
John Boyega, who played Finn in the Star Wars sequels, criticized Disney's handling of the franchise, suggesting a greater focus on the Expanded Universe and Old Republic stories to enrich the narrative, while avoiding overpowered characters like Rey and premature deaths of classic heroes. Meanwhile, interest builds around the upcoming Star Wars film "Starfighter," which is set a few years after "The Rise of Skywalker" and includes scenes shot in the Mediterranean, evoking Naboo's portrayal in the prequels; this film may explore the complex sentiments of Naboo's residents toward Emperor Palpatine's legacy. Ewan McGregor, star of the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series, expressed frustration that his show was overshadowed by "The Mandalorian," despite positive reception and Emmy recognition, and he voiced eagerness for a second season. Additionally, the character Rotta the Hutt, initially disliked in the Clone Wars movie, is seen by some as a quirky but fortunate inclusion that connects to the beloved Clone Wars series, highlighting the franchise's willingness to embrace unusual characters and storylines. These perspectives illustrate ongoing fan and actor engagement with Star Wars' evolving narrative, balancing nostalgia, criticism, and hope for future development.
