Rian Johnson directed one of the most divisive Star Wars films, The Last Jedi, and he says making the movie was a career highlight. The director also briefly touched on how he’s hopeful to return to Star Wars one day, perhaps to develop the new Star Wars trilogy that he has discussed before.
Speaking to Variety, Johnson said it’ll be some time before he potentially returns to Star Wars. The next film he plans to write is a third Knives Out film for Netflix. After that, Star Wars might come next.
“Making Star Wars was the high point of my life, and I pray to God I’ll be back there someday,” he said.
