JJ Abrams will return to the Star Wars saga to direct and co-write Episode IX. Abrams previously made 2015’s hugely successful The Force Awakens and will replace Colin Trevorrow, who left Episode IX last week.
The news was confirmed by Lucasfilm boss Kathleen Kennedy, who said in a statement: "With The Force Awakens, JJ delivered everything we could have possibly hoped for, and I am so excited that he is coming back to close out this trilogy." Star Wars Episode IX is set for a May 2019 release.
