I'm not jumping to renew my #DisneyPlus subscription just yet but this is a start. Still have lots of questions and we still have root cause to resolve. Congrats to @jimmykimmel.com and for Disney in righting a wrong.
Jimmy Kimmel will return to ABC's airwaves on Tuesday night, per parent company Disney. Kimmel was taken off air for "ill-timed and thus insensitive" comments about the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the company said. My latest in @washingtonpost.com:
Disney brings back Jimmy Kimmel, sidelined after Charlie Kirk comments
“Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on ABC was taken off air following backlash from President Donald Trump, FCC Chair Brendan Carr, Nexstar, Sinclair and a bevy of conservative critics.

Yeah, #TheMandalorianAndGrogu looks like it's going to be a pretty fun ride with equal moments for kids and adults. Can't wait!

"Good shot, baby" will be (is already?) another iconic Star Wars quote. 💙

If I'm unavailable the rest of this week, it's @adamchristopher.me 's fault.

Thank you to the great folks at Random House Worlds for this advanced copy. Full coverage and review coming after 10/28 when the embargo lifts.

Brace yourselves...the "George Lucas was snubbed at the Emmys" takes and videos are coming. 🙄

Congrats on the Emmy, #Andor

I’ve been so pleased and relieved with the overall reaction to TRIALS OF THE JEDI.

Just three days left to pre-order - it’s out June 17 - links and bonuses for that are here: charlessoule.com/trialsofthejedi
Just finished a second reading of Trials of the Jedi by @charlessoule.bsky.social (its that good) and it's been a very satisfying conclusion to this phase of Star Wars storytelling. Cannot wait to talk more when the book releases in just four days. Get your copy ordered now, please. #TheHighRepublic

Once you've seen that final scene and heard those final notes, be sure to check out track 47 of the Rogue One soundtrack and take note of the track title to ensure you're completely and emotionally undone.

Hard to believe the last four years flew by that fast, but along the way it was #TheHighRepublic that rekindled so much of what I love about Star Wars.

Thank you to everyone at Random House Worlds, the Project Luminous team, and especially @charlessoule.bsky.social for this one...

Just finished watching episodes 7-9 of #Andor and it's apparent, now more than ever, why Cassian opened his eyes here and what he was thinking about in that final and fatal moment...

May the 4th is officially underway here.

It's been 20 years, but now seated (once again) on opening night for #RevengeOfTheSith. 🔥

This is where the fun begins!

I love Hayden today more than ever and it's a joy to see just how much he's thriving, vibing, and having fun.

Legend.

That's mine, I said it back in 1999, and it's still true 25+ years later.

Got to see #Thunderbolts* in IMAX tonight and it was so so good. Was NOT prepared for such an emotional journey with some of these characters and Florence Pugh absolutely crushed it. (1/3)

Now seated for #Thunderbolts*

Also here to report back on any Zemo mentions or sightings for @maggieofthetown.bsky.social

I have seen all of #Andor Season 2 and it's changed my life forever.
