Russo Brothers’ Decision to Forge Their Own ‘Star Wars’ Universe: A Look at Their Future Projects

The Russo Brothers, known for their work on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, have announced their plans to move on from playing in someone else’s franchise sandbox and instead focus on developing their own original franchises. In a recent interview, Anthony and Joe Russo expressed their dedication to creating new stories that rival the cultural phenomenon of Star Wars.

Despite the success of their previous Marvel films, the Russo Brothers are now looking to forge their “own Star Wars” universe, focusing on original storytelling and new ideas. They have made it clear that they want to build their own franchises rather than continue working on established properties.

This move by the Russo Brothers draws comparisons to Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon, a science fiction film that was originally envisioned as a Star Wars project. Snyder approached Kathleen Kennedy, the head of Lucasfilm, about his idea for a trilogy before ultimately deciding to develop it outside of the Star Wars universe.

While Rebel Moon has received mixed reviews, it is clear that Snyder’s film is not a copy of Star Wars but rather draws inspiration from the iconic space opera. Both the Russo Brothers and Zack Snyder are looking to create their own original stories that captivate audiences in the same way that Star Wars has for generations.
