I'd like to see it, but I don't believe it's ever getting made.

I wouldn’t mind seeing a Rian Johnson trilogy taking Star Wars in “exciting, new directions”… in concept. But everyone knows it would be made in the same spirit as TLJ. Which means…
~ Humor that’s strange, situationally inappropriate, or just plain bad.
~ Contradicting the mythos or going a little too over the top with it.
~ Semi-absurd characterizations (i.e. Luke=grumpy hermit/get-off-my-lawn guy; Hux=clueless, slapstick stooge; Yoda=happy drunk who contradicts everything he previously taught in the Force)
~ Excessive plot holes.
That’s how Rian Johnson connects to SW so that’s what would be in his trilogy. And let’s be honest. At least 3 of those 4 things are why he won’t get backed by the studio to make a trilogy. The irony is that if his trilogy was in a new setting with all new characters this list would (at the very least) be cut in half. Disney is not going to risk it.

If Rian Johnson does his own Star Wars story that's unrelated to George Lucas' characters/stories, he should be fine. He's terrible at collaborating with other writers, but he's actually a good story teller on his own. Knives Out was quite fun in its genre.
Having said that...he's antagonistic towards Star Wars fans on social media. My first issues with him came from his treatment towards fans for voicing criticism for what he did with Episode 7. That's one thing Abrams did well with: he accepted criticism and didn't feel a need to lash out at anyone. He may be a bit hacky, but his behavior has been way more respectable.

Disney suddenly has patience with Star Wars after farting out 5 films in 4 years
