The third movie was still one of the most successful movies of all time.

The next movie was Solo, the first Star Wars Movie in a run of 10 to fail.
Solo probably failed because the average cinema-goer does not want to see a Han Solo spin-off with Harrison Ford replaced by an unknown B-list actor.
The actor was ok, btw, he was also very good in "Hail, Caesar".
It takes more than one bad movie to kill a franchise of such magnitude. But I think Disney execs are going to persist in achieving this goal.
