With a mysterious video, the immensely popular company Studio Ghibli would have announced a collaboration with Lucasfilm , the American film production company founded by George Lucas in 1971, world-renowned for producing the entire Star Wars saga and other hits such as Indiana Jones , among other franchises. .
Lucasfilm is considered a leading company in the development of new technology in terms of special effects, sound and computer animation. Meanwhile, Studio Ghibli remains a standard bearer in the anime industry in terms of prestige and traditional animation technique, with the latter not matching the other company's ideology.
On the other hand, if the collaboration referred to an animation project based on Star Wars , it would not be the first foray of this franchise into the world of Japanese animation. Star Wars: Visions was an anthology series (a compilation of unconnected episodes) created for Disney Plus. It was produced by Lucasfilm Animation , but the nine shorts were produced by seven Japanese animation studios: Kamikaze Douga , Twin Engine , Trigger , Geno Studio , Kinema Citrus , Production IG , and Science SARU, each of which tells a different story based on the universe of the franchise.
