Legendary animation company Studio Ghibli has teased a possible collaboration with Star Wars and Indiana Jones studio Lucasfilm.
Studio Ghibli shared a short video on Twitter that only shows the logos of the two companies. There is no further text or explanation beyond the logos appearing one after the other.
While it isn't 100% a confirmation this is a Star Wars project, it is important to note that the official Star Wars Twitter account did Quote Tweet the video.

Studio Ghibli is the Japanese animation studio behind such beloved films as Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.
While anything can change, celebrated Studio Ghibli co-founder and director Hayao Miyazaki has said that he came out of retirement for one last film - How Do You Live? - which has yet to be released. We know the film is inspired by the 1937 novel from Yoshino Genzaburo of the same name, but we have yet to learn much more.
Miyazaki first retired in 2013 after directing The Wind Rises, and How You Live? will be his first feature film since then. Could Lucasfilm draw him back for one more? Only time will tell.
Lucasfilm, which was founded by George Lucas in 1971, is the company now owned by Disney that is behind Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Willow, and more. The last feature film from Lucasfilm was Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, and its focus has been on shows and shorts on Disney+.
