This is the penultimate issue: Star Wars Insider magazine officially ends its run with issue #237 in February 2026 after 30+ years in print.

…and P.S.

I understand that Cassian's face sells better right now, but for the main newsstand cover, they could have featured the film's lead heroine or the main cast of Rogue One.

I love Cassian, but this kind of nonsense is just annoying 😑

I just re-blogged an article about Rogue One that includes interviews with all the creators/writers except Tony GilORy and no one mentions his name.

It's funny because I've been listening to Gary Whitta's scripted podcast, I'll See You In Hell, and I've watched/read a couple of interviews with him. He's happy to talk about Rogue One but he hasn't said GilORy's name once in interviews. He'll talk about Gareth, John Knoll, and Chris Weitz by name and then say "other writers."

He's salty as fuck but clearly signed some sort of NDA with the Guild. Given how he writes about Hollywood (and Lucasfilm) in his scripted podcast, I'm sure he'd be incredibly salty if he was free to speak.

Anyway, I'm just getting into the scripted podcast; what we used to call a radio show. So far it's pretty funny and John Boyega is in it. I will say that I'm inclined to like a person who came out of the SW/Lucasfilm/Disney system and is still friendly with Boyega.
