The introduction of the canonical High Republic series has forced Lucasfilm into rebranding the entire Star Wars franchise, splitting it into distinct eras so that longtime fans, recent converts and the creators themselves are more easily able to distinguish what sits where in the vast and expansive mythology.

For instance, Russian Doll creator Leslye Headland’s The Acolyte will be the first live-action project set during the High Republic era, while The Mandalorian and upcoming spinoffs The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka and Rangers of the New Republic all unsurprisingly fall under the New Republic banner.

There are currently three Star Wars movies in various stages of development, but as of yet, there’s no indication of where they fall in the timeline. We know that Patty Jenkins’ Rogue Squadron arrives in December 2023, though, while Taika Waititi’s mystery project is on the back burner until Thor: Love and Thunder is finished, and Kevin Feige’s addition to the franchise recently hired Loki showrunner Michael Waldron to tackle the script.

Plot details for these projects are non-existent, of course, but according to insider Daniel Richtman, Din Djarin and Baby Yoda are being eyed for making the jump to the big screen and could potentially show up in one of these upcoming films. Although, at this point in time, the tipster hasn’t stated where they’ll appear.

Well, isn't Rogue Squadron almost certainly set at the time of the original trilogy or new republic?

I would assume Mado and Grogu would appear in a film based off the TV universe. They'll all build to an Avengers style film, which will be released in theatres.

I'm sure Disney is aware that the Marvel Netflix TV shows coming together in a spin-off series didn't work. Yet probably would in a film. It's also a great way to double-dip on Disney+ subscribers. Make them by a movie ticket.

The tipster in question puts his rumor mill behind a Patreon paywall.

I mean, it's reasonable that Din or Grogu could appear in a theatrical movie that's appropriate for the timeline, but, "looking at it" is not the same thing as "it's going to happen." Obvious choices don't make for good insider info, since the right response is, "Well, a-duh!"

Acolyte is definitely before the time of even Grogu's birth. So, that's out.

We don't know the timeline of Squadron, or of Waikiki's or Feige's (or Johnson's) films.

Any notion to the contrary that LucasFilm is going to keep the D+ series walled off from movies is shot down by the appearance of Boba and Luke in D+.

As far as timelines go, for everyone's reference...
