TaikaWaititi I misread this as musical theatre for a sec and was like YESSSSSSS YUB NUB TIME

Zero intrest. Wasn't he going to direct AKIRA?

I would go see a Doctor Aphra movie, if he did one.

Oh, great, more forced humor.

Boring as hell. Awful.

Who tf

As long as KK is in power the odds are high that it will ge another wahman power movie.

Believe when I see it!

New Star Wars from Rian AND Taika? This is like having my birthday and Christmas at the same time 😄

Great more bad jokes at bad times

Will he get full creative control and will KathyLucasfilm fire another director?

3 years ago, I would’ve been ecstatic with this news. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still happy to see Taika work on anything— —but at this point, doing a SW film? That’s like closing the barn door after the horse got out...and was immediately killed by a bear

Meanwhile

OMFG

TaikaWaititi Big fan of Taika but damn can we stop it with the star wars movies. There’s been too many

TaikaWaititi I’m so over starwars - hasn’t been any good since Empire, once Lucas went the kiddie marketing route. Force Awakens had promise but they botched then next 2. JJ is a mediocre storyteller, IMO. Let it rest.

TaikaWaititi What We Do In the Shadows was amazing and his episode of Mandalorian was pretty good. However I feel like Star Wars should try a serious director like Villeneuve to get back on track and be respected

TaikaWaititi Haven’t we had enough of them?!?!?!? Smh

TaikaWaititi That's too bad...the most predictable/generic filmmaker working today

TaikaWaititi isnt he doing too much? Marvel films now star wars as well. Youd think he'd wanna do his own creative films not franchise stuff. But hey get those fat checks if thats your goal

TaikaWaititi Quite a good news. It's a talented and seems a funny guy. I really loved what he did on the themandalorian and of course his last movie. I wish Disney will let him do what he wants because starwars needs guy like him.

TaikaWaititi Please don't pull a Kathleen Kennedy, shtbag Johnson, and JJ Abrams trilogy

TaikaWaititi Another SW movie you say? I wonder what it could be? How exciting? Let's wait and find out. I Taiki, we trust. Do your best!

TaikaWaititi He did an interview where he said his parents wanted him to be more like jj abrams. Now they can finally be proud of him.

TaikaWaititi great now i have to really start to watch StarWars.... damn u taika and all of your talents

TaikaWaititi I knew when they said No○ 9 was the last one it wouldn't be 'the last one'. I'm a big Star Wars addict, but I'm a believer in 'when you're at your end, and on a good wicket. ..quit'. What's left?

TaikaWaititi StarWars needs this kind’f saviour!

TaikaWaititi Time out! There’s going to be a new Star Wars movie?!🤯🤯

TaikaWaititi Oh thank the gods. If anyone can resurrect this moribund franchise, it’s TaikaWaititi.
