Taika Waititi Update On His Upcoming Star Wars Film

Bespin refugee - August 15, 2021


In an interview with Wired, Taika Waititi offers an early update on his Star Wars film:
'. “It’s still in the ‘EXT. SPACE’ stage,” he laughs, referring to the format scriptwriters use to set up a scene. “But we’ve got a story. I’m really excited by it because it feels very me.” Has it been a challenge to marry his irreverent tone with the operatically sincere Star Wars universe? “I tend to go down that little sincerity alleyway in my films,” he says. “I like to fool the viewer into thinking ‘ha it’s this’ and then them going, ‘Damn it, you made me feel something!’”'

Style? Yeah, I guess you could call it that. If by "style" you mean the sense of humor of a 13 year-old trailer park stoner who's best directorial efforts thus far make Leonard Part 6 look like Citizen Kane.

So...not a fan of Thor Ragnarok, I take it?

Taika proved that he can direct fun movies and even put some depth, he seems to be good fit for the franchise. I think just doing a Star Wars story type movie is the way to go, they can focus on early days of Darth Vader maybe even on Luke after the end of ROJ or go into the past as it was rumored.

He would be an interesting choice, although I don't know if his particular style would be suited for Star Wars or would go over well with the fans.
