The Star Wars franchise tries it’s best not to be predictable and maintain some twists and secrets about the plots of the films, even during the age of leaks and spoilers. One of the big reasons behind this is that they don’t look towards the existing body of source material from the books, comic books, or video games to ultimately mine for scripts, they tend to write them from scratch and that is meant to keep an air of mystery with the films which the franchise is known for.
While speaking with RollingStone, Lucasfilm head Kathleen Kennedy explained the toughness of getting these movies written given that unlike the Marvel Cinematic Universe they don’t exactly have a huge amount of source material to adapt and are relying on screenwriters/filmmakers to develop these new films based on their own ideas.
