Following the recent wave of Star Wars news from Star Wars Celebration Japan, it has been reported that Carlton Cuse, known for his work on Lost, is developing a new Star Wars series with his son, Nick Cuse. This information was initially shared by The Insneider and subsequently confirmed by Variety. Should the series move forward, Carlton Cuse would join other Lost alumni, like J.J. Abrams, in contributing to the celebrated franchise. However, Damon Lindelof, another Lost alumnus, previously faced challenges in his association with the series.
Currently, no additional details about the potential series are available, including which characters will be featured, the timeline setting within the Star Wars universe, or casting decisions.
The series could mark the first professional collaboration between the father-son duo, although both have established notable careers independently. Carlton Cuse has been involved in projects such as Lost, Bates Motel, The Strain, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, Locke & Key, and Pulse. Meanwhile, Nick Cuse has contributed to The Leftovers, Watchmen, and Station Eleven.
Though both possess significant credentials in the genre, the future of this Star Wars project remains uncertain.
Further updates about upcoming releases in popular franchises like Marvel, Star Wars, Star Trek, the DC Universe, and Doctor Who can be tracked through industry news sources.
