The Rascal Squadron motion-picture show inspired by the games has been delayed

Rogue Squadron, a movie loosely based happening both the books and the games of the same name, has been delayed. The film was regular to be the next big Star Wars release, with director Patty Jenkins attached, but production has now been delayed (thanks, Hollywood Reporter).

Evidently the director's schedule was simply too rammed to get in production on the pic in 2022 and thus it's now in limbo: the release particular date remains December 22, 2023, but that is likely to shift.

Rogue Squadron was unconcealed in December 2020 and, at the time, Jenkins said she was inspired by her father's life as a fighter pilot and wanted to make the "sterling fighter pilot movie ever made." The film is intended to be "something groundbreaking with great work from the games and the books [...] In that location's a lot of things being self-confessed and understood roughly the greatness of all of those things."

Jenkins is probably best-known for directing Wonder Charwoman and is currently directing the third film in this series, but also directed Monster and episodes of various Telecasting shows from Infantile fixation to The Killing. She's besides working on a Cleopatra feature for Predominant.

Rogue Squadron the game was released in 1998, an arcade space combat sim that cast you as Luke Skywalker. It featured a lot of lovingly detailed ships from the movies and bonus levels that let you play back the Death Star ditch run and the Battle for Hoth: it was great, and then were the sequels. And if you ask me, the novels were as dandy as the Star Wars books ever got.

Not that you'll be short of Star Wars stuff and nonsense: there's an ungentle movie to be directed by Taika Waititi, several TV shows including a Mandalorian by-product called Rangers of the Republic, a series major Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano, and a series set 10 years after Revenge of the Sith called Obi-Wan Kenobi, star Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen. Make you sick of this universe, Walt Disney will.
