I’ve still not gotten the first issue yet. All the copies were damaged that my LCS received and he hadn’t gotten replacements yet the last time I was in there.

Here we go:)
1 Line from a comic and a project luminous rumor isn't exactly verification.

So Yoda is going to be in this
He’s around. Very possibly. Opens up a hornets nest tough. CGI or puppet
Also ‘ We had mention of the High Republic in Dooku:Jedi Lost as well. (One of the recent canon releases on audiobook as a mind of serial play) It was a time of exploration for the jedi and one where many artifacts were found...and kept hidden.’
Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?

I'd rather there be no Yoda or anyone else from the Skywalker saga in this. Would be fine if some Jedi reference "Master Yoda" in conversation, but I don't need an on screen appearance.

B&W were fired after the dismal response to the final season of GoT.
Their deal with Netflix isn't absurd in the least: $250 million barely covers two seasons of GoT and wouldn't cover two seasons of The Mandalorian.
KK initally spoke with them about running a series based on The Old Republic but they came back with wanting to create a trilogy about the very first Force Users, set more than 30,000 years prior to ANH. She went along with it until the extremely divisive final season of GoT.
At that point, the writing was on the wall for them at Lucasfilm.
Quote:
KK has been meeting with nearly every successful screenwriting team to create new Star Wars and Indiana Jones properties but everyone, and I mean everyone, has turned them down.
She had the guys from A Quiet Place at Lucasfilm back in like late September/early October and asked them to create a new Star Wars trilogy/story with new characters, settings and stories outside of the Skywalker saga.
They refused.
The quote I got was "Hey, if we're going to do that, we'll just create our own universe of characters and make it anything we want".
Due to the prequels and sequels, Lucasfilm and Star Wars has become toxic to any A-Listers and even many B-Listers with regards to new films. Also, there's a good reason why all of the new TV series have familiar settings in the known era: It's an easy sell.
It'll be really interesting to see who actually ends up attached to this High Republic thing (assuming that's really what it is) given what he's heard. I take all things with a grain of salt but this guy is super connected to Lucasfilm.

I think they need to put the idea of a trilogy on the shelf and just focus on solid, standalone movies with good talent given some leeway to tell stories they want to tell. They're thinking too big and with their wallets.
Exception: let Rian Johnson do whatever the hell he wants with a trilogy.

That seems to be KK's thinking as well. She's publicly indicated that they are intentionally back away from the trilogy model.
