Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy, who has just extended her contract with the company for another three years, has hinted in a new interview that the world of Star Wars hasn't seen the last of sequel heroes Rey, Finn, and Poe. While there don't seem to be any solid plans for the saga-concluding Resistance heroes yet, it appears Lucasfilm is interested in extending their stories.

Kennedy answered the question about the sequel characters in a recent interview with Empire Magazine. "Certainly, those are not characters we're going to forget," she said of Daisy Ridley's Rey, Oscar Isaac's Poe, and John Boyega's Finn. "They will live on, and those are conversations that are going on with the creative team as well."

Since Rise of Skywalker released to a poor critical response in 2019, the Star Wars franchise has pivoted to explore its galaxy through Disney+ TV shows, including the upcoming Book of Boba Fett and the highly anticipated Obi Wan Kenobi series. Rogue Squadron, the film that was meant to be the next cinematic Star Wars release after Rise of Skywalker, has recently been taken off Disney's production schedule due to conflicts with director Patty Jenkins' timetable.
