With “The Mandalorian” a numbers darling for Disney and the “Boba Fett” spin-off shaping up to the one of the bonza highlights of the upcoming holiday season, this news won’t surprise many.
According to YouTube scooper Grace Randoloph, Lucasfilm is trying to lure Jon Favreu and Dave Filoni over to the movie division.
Whoa – I hear #JonFavreau & #DaveFiloni are in talks to head over to the movie side of #StarWars
That would be BRILLIANT pic.twitter.com/u3rArE36UQ

Having not had a lot of luck with their recent “Star Wars” film projects- particularly when compared to those bravura reviews for their recent small screen projects- no surprise that Kathleen Kennedy would want to hand the keys to two folks who seem to not how to get the job done.
Meantime over at Disney+…
Also #StarWars is trying to bring back these characters – even Driver!
Most likely for #DisneyPlus but movies not out of the question.
I would love to see them come back with properly developed stories. pic.twitter.com/lmJancwaVG
