Thoughts on Filoni replacing Kennedy?
On the one hand, filoni worked closely with Lucas and knows Lucas's sensibilities
On the other hand, his work often relies on call backs and somewhat deep cut characters, and it has been also suggested that his view of star wars is very Orthodox and conservative (not as in politically conservative). It's also been reported anonymously and rumored from several decent sources that he did not like Andor or think it's the kind of show Lucasfilm should make, despite its critical acclaim and his public statements complimenting it. Also been speculated that his conservatism on star wars is a contributory factor to how much stalling there has been on new films
Personally I'm not optimistic about it (obviously) but it could work out.
