You’ll have to wait for more than a couple of years for the next Star Wars movie. According to Variety and The Wrap, Disney has pulled an untitled Star Wars film from its 2026 release lineup and replacing it with Ice Age 6, which is set to premiere on December 18 that year. It’s not quite clear which film that is, but Daisy Ridley announced at the Star Wars Celebration in London last year that she was going to reprise her role as Rey in a new film. The movie will be directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, who also directed some episodes of Ms. Marvel, and will be a direct sequel to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

Set 15 years after the events of the previous film, the upcoming movie will reportedly revolve around Rey as she establishes a new Jedi academy and build a new Jedi Order. Steven Knight (Peaky Blinders, Angelina Jolie’s Maria) joined the production when he replaced the original screenwriters last year, but he also left the project in October. Lucasfilm’s search for a new screenwriter might have contributed to the film’s delay.

While the next installment in the main Star Wars series won’t be coming out in 2026, a film that’s part of the franchise will still be coming out that year. The Mandalorian & Grogu, a continuation of the Disney+ TV series directed by Jon Favreau, has already started filming and will be released on May 22, 2026. The Wrap also says it was “assured” that the next Star Wars film was “still very much in development,” which hopefully means that it won’t end up being cancelled like the movie planned by Game of Thrones’ creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss.
