@One MMA Fan Didn't you just show me an article earlier this year that KK's staying & just signed a new contract?
In early March the Disney CEO said:
“We’ve been absolutely thrilled that we can have the kind of talent like Kathy Kennedy to direct Lucasfilm… We look forward to having Kathleen Kennedy running the Lucasfilm organization for many years to come.”
Now it is April and you never know with this big corporation, plans change and they could always give PR answers while already having different plans in motion.
After a quick google not a lot of sites are reporting on this recent news/rumors and the small site that has the story is claiming the source of a reddit user. Wait a week and we will see if other big news outlets pick up the story then you know for sure so far not that trusted of a source.
What was fishy to me was the claims that there is a battle inside LucasFilm between Favreau / Filoni vs Pablo Hidalgo. Now I don't buy that Hidalgo really has the importance and gravitas to appose both of them he isn't at that power level unless this is some sort of proxy play with KK behind him, who knows at this point just rumors.
Till then in KK we trust!
