Lawrence Kasdan finished with Star Wars movies after Han Solo spinoff

November 10, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Having returned to a galaxy far, far away to co-write Star Wars: The Force Awakens with J.J. Abrams, Lawrence Kasdan has now revealed that the upcoming Han Solo anthology movie will be his last Star Wars project.

“That was my last film of this saga,” Kasdan told Bild (via The Supernaughts). “I will never do Star Wars again. I want to work again as a director.”

Kasdan has of course previously penned The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, while his directorial offerings include Body Heat, The Big Chill, Wyatt Earp and Dreamcatcher.

Disappointing news, but on the bright side, at least we have two more Lawrence Kasdan-scripted Star Wars movies to look forward to…
