Summary [list] [*] Dave Filoni's promotion to Chief Creative Officer at Lucasfilm means he will have a more significant role in shaping the future of Star Wars, working alongside Kathleen Kennedy and Carrie Beck in planning new projects. [*] Filoni sees himself as a resource for other filmmakers and showrunners, offering guidance and support rather than dictating their creative visions. [*] Filoni will continue making his own Star Wars content, including potentially a movie set in The Mandalorian era and the upcoming New Jedi Order movie, and he will also play a role in overseeing other upcoming Star Wars films, ensuring they form a cohesive whole. [/list] George Lucas' protégé, Dave Filoni, is now officially chief creative officer at Lucasfilm - and here's what it means for the future of [b]Star Wars[/b]. Dave Filoni has long been considered Star Wars royalty by the fandom, in large part because of his mentorship under George Lucas. Filoni joined Lucasfilm for Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and he's remained an integral part of the company over the years; he's recently helmed his first live-action Star Wars TV show, Ahsoka, which proved a tremendous success and paved the way for Filoni's theatrical debut. Dave Filoni has now been promoted at Lucasfilm, taking responsibility for overseeing upcoming Star Wars movies and TV shows. [b]This promotion is surely earned by Ahsoka[/b], and sets him up to be more important to the future of Star Wars than ever before. There's something beautifully symbolic about this; the theme of Ahsoka was "Master and Apprentice," and now Lucas' own apprentice has taken his place. What does this mean for the future of Star Wars?
