The director of “The Last Jedi” and “Resurrection of the Dead” said that he connects the tapes

Ryan Johnson said that between the films "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" (Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi) and "Knives Out: Resurrection" dead man" (Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery) there is a "spiritual connection."

“When I wrote the script for The Last Jedi, and Star Wars has always been something almost religious to me, this film touched on many of my experiences. In addition, shortly before I started working on the painting, my father died, and everything connected with this was constantly on my mind. I think in that sense there really is a connection between the two films.”

In the third part of Knives Out, Benoit Blanc investigates a murder in a church. The film focuses on the themes of faith and death.

The film was released on Netflix on December 12.

Surprise new Star Wars short film coming out just in time for Christmas

A surprise from Lucasfilm and Industrial Light & Magic will arrive just in time for Christmas this year.

On December 23, Star Wars Kids will release a new short film, The Gingerbread Death Star Trench Run, in which the iconic trench flying scene from A New Hope is reimagined and recreated entirely from gingerbread cookies.

The film was co-created by ILM artist Landis Fields, who used his love of reality baking shows to create this short film. “We collect a lot of reference material and use devices to capture things in 3D, and then we bring it into the computer to compare it to what we create,” Fields told StarWars.com. “It adds an extra layer of verisimilitude, charm and magic.”

“I’m not getting any younger!”: Casey Hudson denied rumors that Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic will not be released until 2030

Co-founder of the Canadian Arcanaut Studios Casey Hudson commented on the release timing of the recently announced story-driven role-playing action game Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic on his microblog.

Recall that Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic (FotOR) was presented as part of The Game Awards 2025 ceremony. The announcement was accompanied by a non-gameplay trailer and a message that the game is in an early stage of development.

Against the background of the presentation, Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier expressed the idea that, given the production status, FotOR will have to wait until 2030 at best, and allowed the project to be released on the yet unannounced PS7.

Before the fans had time to get upset, Hudson came out with a refutation of Schreier's words: “Don't worry about the rumors [about the release] not earlier than 2030. The game will be released before then. I’m not getting any younger!”

GamesVoice has released a major update of Russian voice acting for STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor

GamesVoice studio announced the release of version 1.3 of the Russian dubbing for STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor. An update with the ironic code name “Really?” has become the most complete to date and actually brings the localization to a complete form.

The main change is that replicas of all remaining opponents have been added, which is why the game world has become noticeably more alive and holistic. The team also synchronized the subtitles with the voice-overs, eliminating discrepancies that could disrupt immersion. After installing the update, the project can be completed entirely in Russian without noticeable gaps in the dialogues.

More than 100 actors took part in the creation of the voice acting, which makes it one of the largest GamesVoice projects in the entire existence of the studio. The developers remind you that the work on localizations is supported by the community: those who wish can help by raising funds for the dubbing of the GTA: San Andreas radio station or sign up for a paid subscription.

STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor continues the story of Cal Kestis in the format of a large-scale third-person action adventure, and now the path of the Jedi has become even more accessible to Russian-speaking players.
