Episode description

J.J. Abrams broke the serious secrecy around Episode IX just long enough to post a photo of the cast on the day photography wrapped. Den of Geek’s Star Wars podcast hosts have you covered with analysis of the new costumes, and we’ve hyped ourselves up for what might be the last movie in Rey’s saga.


That’s just the beginning of a plethora of the news for February. "Triple Force Friday" and a bevy of other merchandising announcements have dropped, including a promise of toys connected to the upcoming game Jedi: Fallen Order. With all the changes in the Star Wars video game world, what can we expect from its merchandise?


In terms of books, a full slate of tie-in products has been announced supporting the Galaxy’s Edge theme park. An excerpt from the novel Master and Apprentice sparks a comparison of Legends Qui-Gon to the character as he appears in Age of Republic and in The Clone Wars.


As the characters in Resistance grow, we get a better feeling for which people and relationships have most at stake on the Colossus. We’re still lukewarm on the show, and talk about the highs and lows of the first season, plus comparing it to The Clone Wars’ rough start. With Resistance approaching The Force Awakens, there’s plenty of room to theorize about how the show connects to the film.
