Every 'Star Wars' movie and TV show currently in the works, including a Boba Fett spin-off

It's a good week to be a "Star Wars" fan.

Not only is "Solo: A Star Wars Story" now in theaters, but according to The Hollywood Reporter, Lucasfilm is "developing movies on a slew of characters," including fan favorites Boba Fett and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

That's just the icing on the cake, though. Multiple other projects have already been announced, and it might be hard to keep track of them all.

The creators of "Game of Thrones" and the director of "Iron Man" are all signed on for separate projects, just to name a couple.

Details are scarce for these movies and TV shows, but we know Disney and Lucasfilm might even have more up their sleeves.

Apart from what we already know, Disney CEO Bob Iger said in February that "a few 'Star Wars' series specifically for" the upcoming Disney streaming service are in development.

Below is every "Star Wars" project currently in development that has been reported or announced:

Episode IX

It was announced in September that "The Force Awakens" director J.J. Abrams would direct Episode IX and finish the trilogy he started. Abrams replaced "Jurassic World" director Colin Trevorrow, who left the movie over creative differences. The movie comes to theaters December 20, 2019.

Rian Johnson's trilogy

A new "Star Wars" trilogy from "The Last Jedi" director Rian Johnson was announced in November. Johnson will write and direct the trilogy, which will be separate from the main saga and standalone films.

David Benioff and D.B. Weiss' films

Lucasfilm announced in February that "Game of Thrones" showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss will write and produce a new series of "Star Wars" films. It's unknown how many movies they will develop, but they will be separate from Johnson's trilogy and the main Skywalker saga.
