Destroy the IP and leave? Disney Lucasfilm's female president is retiring

According to foreign media reports, Kathleen Kennedy, president of Disney Lucasfilm, will retire at the end of this year. It is not yet clear who will succeed her as president of Lucasfilm.

Kathleen Kennedy plans to retire at the end of 2025, marking the end of her era at Lucasfilm. Under her leadership, the Star Wars IP has expanded beyond the "Skywalker Saga" framework, embraced diverse creators, and launched hit series such as "The Mandalorian" and "Andor." However, her tenure has also been accompanied by controversial film and creative team changes.

Recently, Disney adjusted its DEI plan and the company will refocus on its core entertainment business.
