Even the rebooted X-Men series only financially flourished when the old gang showed up in X-Men: Days of Future Past. After all, a Star Wars movie without the beloved Star Wars characters (even the prequels were rooted in familiar characters) may end up as viable over the long run as Fantastic Beasts or Men in Black: International. If anything, The Mandalorian (which looks damn good) and the other in-development shows may suggest that the immediate future for Star Wars is not in theatrical but in episodic television content. Audiences who once went to the movies just to go to the movies now get much of their filmed entertainment on TV and streaming services. Moviegoers spend a much larger percentage of their money on a much smaller pool of “big” movies. The theatrical industry has changed since 2012.
