… Writers of Sweetheart and Luke Cage.

"Always in motion, the future of Star Wars movies is, and a new project has entered the picture. J.D. Dillard, director of Sleight and Sweetheart, is reportedly teaming up with Agents of SHIELD and Luke Cage writer Matt Owens to develop a new Star Wars movie.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, which broke the news, it's unclear at this point if the film would be theatrical or for Disney+, though it seems like that decision may not be made until it's further down the road. It's unclear if Dillard would direct, and of course, there are no definitive plot details yet. Also, neither Dillard nor Lucasfilm had responded to requests for comment at the time of publication…"

So, they don't actually know anything, but someone would like to associate these people with that faltering franchise?

Don't care. Like Marvel movies, I don't keep up with them anymore…

Calico Bill23 Feb 2020 2:15 a.m. PST

Yeah. I agree. I just don't care anymore.

I dunno…Sweetheart was a VERY refreshing horor film. Still it may be beating a dead horse. It was all downhill after they canned the Rogue One guy.

The Mandalorian was a breath of fresh air. Rogue One was good. If Disney can see past the end of the Mouse's nose, it will give us more of this kind of Star Wars.

Star Wars is best when it keeps to its gritty, dark roots. Anyone who insists the OT were kids' films is forgetting that A New Hope (Ep. IV) contains scenes including Vader breaking a guy's neck, a nasty barroom brawl that ends with Obi Wan slicing and dicing two murderous goons, and Luke Skywalker gazing in shock at the charred corpses of his aunt and uncle. Does that sound like a kids' film to you? George's misguided meddling with the OT, including trying to have Greedo shoot first and miss from two feet, was a sign that he didn't really understand the creature that he had inspired and whose birth had been orchestrated by a team of brilliant midwives.

When Star Wars strays from its gritty, dark roots, as it did with the final three-film trilogy, most of us don't give it the time of day. As a forty-something male with money in my pockets, Disney needs me for SW to continue to make money.
