The Living Force Trilogy
🛠️ Why Star Wars Needs a Redo of Episodes VII, VIII, and IX
The Star Wars sequel trilogy—The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and The Rise of Skywalker—arrived with monumental expectations. For many fans, they offered dazzling visuals, nostalgia hits, and moments of promise. But ask the core fanbase, and you'll find a fracture as deep as the Force chasm between Luke and Kylo Ren. Why?
Disregarded Legacy: George Lucas’s original plans, which emphasized Leia as the true Chosen One, Luke rebuilding the Jedi, and an exploration of the Whills and the microbiotic Force, were completely abandoned.
Character Arcs Betrayed: Luke’s disillusionment felt cynical, not earned. Finn’s potential as a Force-sensitive hero was sidelined. Rey’s lineage reveal reinforced legacy elitism—ironically contradicting her earlier arc as “no one.”
A Galaxy Shrinking Instead of Expanding: Rather than exploring new ideas like the Living Force, Jedi Balance, or the criminal underworld’s rise, the sequels rehashed the Empire vs. Rebels template with less emotional weight.
It’s not about hating these films—it’s about what could have been.
🌌 A New Path: The Living Force Trilogy (Episodes VII–IX)
I’ve written and developed an original fan trilogy—Episode VII: The Living Force, Episode VIII: The Shadows of Balance, and Episode IX: Heirs to the Force—which offers a spiritual, strategic, and mythological expansion of Lucas’s vision.
Let’s break down why this trilogy delivers what the sequel trilogy didn’t:
🧘 The Living Force (Episode VII): Reclaiming the Spirit
Set in a galaxy brimming with corruption and uncertainty, the film repositions Leia as a working Chancellor navigating political fracture. Han Solo negotiates a tense peace with Mandalore. But in the shadows, Thrawn manipulates syndicates, setting the galaxy ablaze through criminal networks and ideology.
Finn’s arc is restored: a former stormtrooper haunted by guilt, learns the Force is accessible for those individuals with deep will & practice.
Rey isn’t a legacy baby—she’s a spiritual awakening, a Force “nobody” who redefines what Jedi potential looks like.
Ren (Ben Solo) becomes something darker: not just a fallen Jedi, but a master manipulator, trained by Plagueis’s spirit to seduce greed & ambition through covert operation, not brute violence.

🌓 The Shadows of Balance (Episode VIII): Philosophy Over Spectacle
We dive into the tension between the old Jedi teachings and a new doctrine: Balance is not compromise—it is synthesis. Luke isn’t broken—he’s transforming. The Balanced Path emerges not as rebels to tradition, but as the evolution of the Jedi path.
The Shadow Manifesto, written by Thrawn and spread through cultural warfare, becomes a political and ideological virus.
Leia’s political power is under siege, but her moral clarity shines.
Luke and Rey seek wisdom from the ruins of Jedi temples, and Tyval’Nor, the storm-veined planet, has lessons to teach.

🌌 Heirs to the Force (Episode IX): Legacy Reforged
This is not a story of bloodlines—it’s a story of awakening.
Finn and Rey represent a reborn Jedi path called the Bendi, after the One who calls themselves The Bendu who knows the Bendu. It is a path of integration, humility, and active balance.
The Dark Order Society, a terrifying cult born from Master Ren & Thrawn’s ideology and Sith tradition, rises through media, myth, and manipulation.
Ahsoka Tano, once a bridge between eras, becomes a mentor, helping this new generation forge a path neither Jedi nor Sith—but assisting the Bendi path towards something new.

🌀 The World Between Worlds: A Canonical Opportunity
Thanks to Star Wars Rebels, we now have the World Between Worlds—a canon-supported concept allowing alternate timelines. This provides a perfect storytelling justification for a new timeline. We’re not erasing the original Episodes 7-9. We’re showing another path. Disney could continue selling their existing trilogy products while supporting an alternate-timeline franchise—like Marvel's multiverse.
📢 A Call to Action: Seeking Animators, Financial Backers, and Star Wars Dreamers
Star Wars is Disney’s IP. I am not looking to make money but to heal the fandom. However, this is more than fan fiction—it’s a fully realized, trilogy-spanning vision that pays homage to George Lucas’s themes while daring to evolve them. With scripts completed for all three films and profound lore woven across Force philosophy, galactic politics, and emotional healing, this project is ready for adaptation.
I’m calling on:
🎨 Animators who want to bring cinematic storytelling to life
💰 Producers & backers seeking an IP with built-in fan demand
🌠 Star Wars lovers who believe in hope, redemption, and the rebirth of legacy
✨ Imagine This:
A new Star Wars animated trilogy—streaming on YouTube, fan-funded, studio-grade quality. Visual storytelling rooted in Force philosophy, political intrigue, and mythic rebirth. A galaxy rediscovering itself through Balance.
Let’s forge the future of Star Wars storytelling—one that feels like Star Wars again.
