Kennedy discussed what Lucas told her after appointing her as his successor at Lucasfilm.

Kennedy also addressed Star Wars’ expansion into streaming, calling it a natural fit. “George Lucas started out with serialized storytelling. That’s what inspired him with, you know, Buck Rogers and that kind of cliffhanger storytelling,” she said. She affirmed that Star Wars “absolutely needs to” exist in both film and television. Kennedy stepped aside as Lucasfilm president earlier this year, passing the role to Filoni and Lynwen Brennan. She is currently producing the upcoming Star Wars: Starfighter, directed by Shawn Levy.
