Although they don't have official titles yet, Star Wars: Episode IX and the new Indiana Jones movies can now be marked down on calendars, because The Walt Disney Company and Lucasfilm have given each film a release date, with Indiana Jones pushed back on the calendar from its initial slot.

As revealed on StarWars.com, Star Wars: Episode IX will be released in theaters on May 24th, 2019.

The fifth Indiana Jones movie, featuring the return of Steven Spielberg as the director and Harrison Ford in the titular role, is now set to come out on July 10th, 2020, a little less than one year after its initially planned July 19th, 2019 release date.

We'll be sure to keep Daily Dead readers updated as more information is revealed.

From StarWars.com: "The Walt Disney Company and Lucasfilm announced today two major upcoming release dates.
