Disney’s ‘Star Wars’ Succession Problem: Who Will Replace Kathleen Kennedy?
Favreau? Filoni? Feige? Here's what insiders are saying about who will — and should — become Disney's new 'Star Wars' emperor: "There is no credible alternative."www.hollywoodreporter.com

There isn't a chance in hell. The movies and shows are what they are.Don't laugh, and we won't know for sure for another 2+ years, but I think that is exactly what is being considered right now.

The closest you could get is future content that doesn't contradict the last ten years, but mostly ignores it.
Anyone who thinks they're considering wiping established continuity for the sake of pleasing some whiny fanboys - who are typically continuity Nazis - is wildly mistaken imo.
