Disney and Lucasfilm have pushed the release date of “Star Wars: Episode IX” from May 24,2019 to Dec. 20,2019.

Variety reported that Disney had already been looking to push production from February to June and that the release date would likely move even after how quickly the studio found a replacement director.
