Pretty exciting news, I thought Taika's episode of the Mandalorian was the best of the bunch and the other films of his that I've seen (Thor Ragnarok/Jojo Rabbit) are pretty solid.

Any ideas as to when it might be set? There was talk of covering the Old Republic era but that might not suit his style too well... so maybe a completely different timeline entirely?

You have to see his In Search of the Wilderpeople filmed in New Zealand. It’s incredibly funny and touching.
