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
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
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.

Rian Johnson compares Star Wars: The Last Jedi to the Original Trilogy
While J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars: The Force Awakens was an enormous success at the box office, one of the biggest criticisms aimed at the film was that it adhered to closely to the plot of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. And, with December’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi said to be taking the […]
