Mark Hamill on disagreeing with Rian Johnson over Luke Skywalker’s role in Star Wars: The Last Jedi

December 5, 2017 by Jordan Jones

It looks like Mark Hamill, and Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson had very different views for Luke Skywalker’s arc in the film. Speaking to Screen Rant at a Last Jedi press junket, the Star Wars icon gave a firm “No” when asked if his vision for Luke’s role in the film matched […]

Rian Johnson is at the “very beginning” stages of planning his new Star Wars trilogy

November 23, 2017 by Jordan Jones

Earlier this month, it was announced that Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson would be directing a brand-new trilogy set in the Star Wars universe.

No Lando in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, according to director Rian Johnson

November 22, 2017 by Jordan Jones

With Star Wars: The Force Awakens feeling like a reunion, of sorts, with the series’ iconic characters, it’s natural to hope for even more cameos in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and one such character is Lando Calrissian. Given the character’s upcoming appearance in Solo: A Star Wars Story, played by Donald Glover, it feels like […]

November 6, 2017 by Jordan Jones

There has been a lot of speculation concerning whether or not Luke Skywalker will turn to the dark side in the upcoming Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi director on what inspired him to create Porgs for the film

October 11, 2017 by Jordan Jones

With the release of the second trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the internet officially has Porg fever. In case you missed it, at one point the trailer depicts Chewbacca flying the Millennium Falcon alongside a screaming Porg, which has made the weird seal-penguin-thing the topic of many a conversation this week.

Rian Johnson trusted his “inner fan” while making Star Wars: The Last Jedi

August 17, 2017 by Jordan Jones

It must feel daunting to direct a new entry in the Star Wars franchise, and actually be a fan yourself. The pressure to not screw the film up must be immense — after all, people are still ripping on the prequels to this day. The first installment in this revitalized trilogy fared well with critics, […]

December 21, 2017 by Gary Collinson

While Star Wars: The Last Jedi proved to be a critical darling, it’s fair to say that the film has been dividing audiences and fans.

Rian Johnson on Luke Skywalker’s role in Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Star Wars: Episode IX

December 23, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Warning. Spoilers for Star Wars: The Last Jedi follow… I think it’s fair to say that a lot of people – Mark Hamill included – were a little disappointed by the treatment of Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. His character was far removed from what we’d previously seen, with director Rian Johnson […]
