I've seen a lot of people theorizing that Kira will be the new villain or do some shit, judging by the end of the trailer.
I have heard rumors there will be more films and this isn't the end. I feel Kira being the villains is too predictable

Never in my mind would I'd ever even think that Kira would end up being the villain.
Do you think SEED still has enough potential to continue?

Nah, Suletta from Witch and Sekai from Build Fighters Try have already proven to be worse protagonists than Shinn. But I agree that he had a lot of potential as a character. Really liked his characterisation in the SRW games.

Hirai's designs are as Hirai as ever. Also really digging the 00s early digital paint look they are going for. Shame about the CGI robots  though. 
Suletta was meh and largely underdeveloped, Shinn was AWFUL and pissed away a mountain of goodwill built up before
I would not say that she has not been developed. More of a problem was that they made her an outspoken Mary Sue who gets little to no opposition other than two artificially induced plot points. She's really like the female version of Tatsuya Shiba, a cool-looking character who fell victim to her invincibility.

The women look so damn old now. Cagalli and Lunamaria straight up look older than Ramius was in Destiny. I guess Kira isn't exactly with Zaft if his uniform is blue but the others are red.

Shinn asuka redemption arc lets go, dont give a shit about pretty much anything else I just want to no longer call him the shittest protagonist in the series cause it wasnt even that he was on track to be that they just ripped away the spotlight on him right as he was about to get really interesting and I'm still salty about that.

Oh, the voice actor for Kagari is changing. Well, I expected it, so there is nothing like dissatisfaction.
There was a new character voiced by Houko Kuwashima, and I felt, "Oh, it's a death flag...".

... and they recast best girl Cagalli. Why does she have to suffer so much?
Oh well, at least Shinn and Luna look pretty damn happy together.
