Seems like the same model to me:

2017: Skywalker Saga 8 - The Last Jedi
2018: Solo (Stand-alone)
2019: Skywalker Saga 9
2020: New Stand-alone (Obi Wan?)
2021: Johnson Saga 1
2022: New Stand-alone
2023: Johnson Saga 2
2024: New Stand-alone
2025: Johnson Saga 3
2026: New Stand-alone
2027: Skywalker Saga 10 etc, etc

Seems the higher up folks are happy with his work on Episode 8.

This is sad because it's exactly what's happening.

Man, I have a good feeling people are going to burn out on this...but now that Disney's involved...

It was clear that Star Wars was going to become a yearly franchise from early on, I wrote about this last year:

People will eventually get tired, and the movies will stop breaking record numbers, but in the short term and I mean next 8 years I think it should be relatively easy money, we'll see if by the end of this trilogy people will be excited to jump into a new one.

I was hoping after Episode 9 they would take a break. Star Wars isn't really something you can milk dry outside of comics/books or stuff like that.

Meh. Star Wars will turn into the next Simpsons.

It was clear from the very beginning we were getting a movie per year. They announced the first 3 spin offs very soon after the sequel trilogy if I remember right and have always said the plan was to keep going past that.

Disney/Lucasfilm clearly have a lot of faith in Rian Johnson & The Last Jedi to announce this now. Looking forward to seeing where they go with this. I've loved what we've seen so far of TLJ so I'm really excited for this! Plus for everyone who feels the ST has played it too safe I think this could really offer something new.

I don't get why Star Wars fans can't just sit their ass down once a year and be happy that they're getting this much Star Wars on film in their lifetime. Especially since they're exploring so many different stories that you'd otherwise have to read in a comic book or novel. Hell, Marvel and DC fans get to do this multiple times a year and the steam hasn't run out yet, and people are already complaining about Star Wars before the third film has even released? I don't get it.

Yeah the negativity is just stupid at this point, I'm happy we get this yearly treatment. I'm all for it if the quality is as good as Rogue One.

Some people get burnt out? Buzz off to other franchises no one cares about your whine.

Long live Star Wars.
