    She said she is producing the Shawn Levy film. Even if she begins scaling things back the fact she is going to continue to produce Star Wars films years away indicates that Puck News didn't really know what they were talking about. They tried to say she was 'retiring' in 2025. She clearly is not.

    Correct. These supposed 'insiders' were trying to get their headlines by saying she was done and out of there by the end of 2025. That is absolutely not the case. She is still going to have a lot to do within Lucasfilm for years to come.

    So is she still the President for the foreseeable future?

    Puck News never said she was retiring. Belloni said she was stepping down from Lucasfilm this year.

    You are still actually trying to defend that guy and that newsletter?

    @darthvader88 yes they are going to be doing a transition eventually but for the foreseeable future she will still be the CEO of the company.

    I’ll believe it when it is reported by someone who is not Puck News, not Bellini, and not an article that cites either of them or dubious “insider sources”.

    If I were a subscriber to those people I would be pissed. I would have the view that I pay you money to give me the correct story. Not just 20% of the story.

    It’s like she is half retiring since she is looking for a successor and hopefully he or she can do a better job and is qualified

    She is retiring from a certain point of view. I guess in the minds of some of these 'insiders' that is good enough for the people paying them money.

    Look here this is a Strawberry from a certain point of view. It's not free though.

    I'm sorry, at a cursory glance I couldn't find that quote in the article; would you mind quoting it for me, so that I can see for myself that she said this?

    I prefer them over Kathleen Kennedy even though she is average but not great.

    But I think Tony gilroy would be good.

    dude…she did not. She said she is not retiring. She said she’s producing Mando and then the Levy movie. She said she will retire in the future and build up a successor and that they will it announce months or even a year before.

    Please mate. Stop it. Let it go. The bad bad Kathleen Kennedy boogie woman will be away some day and you’ll have the next LFL boss to hate on.

    Even though she is average has had some good Star Wars content, but I still think we need new leadership.

    I worry that some of the future movies might suffer at the box office and bomb.

    Fun fact about solo she wanted it moved to December but it was Bob Iger who overrode her. It probably would’ve made an extra hundred million maybe 200 million if it was moved to a better date

    honestly I can’t keep a straight face at someone who calls a person who has been one of the most successful producers who produced some of the most influencial movies in history average. Cant take that someone serious. Sorry.

    You can't take someone serious about it, yet you are vigorously arguing your point.

    Why do some of you get so worked up about this?

    If succession planning at Disney has shown one thing, it's that it moves at a glacial pace. I wouldn't be surprised if the Iger successor and LFL one are timed around the same point.

    For the hundredth time, what you wrote is exactly what is in the Puck report. She’s leaving Lucasfilm this year.

    Nobody said she was retiring. Also, I don’t care who runs LFL, the parent company is the one really in charge.
