Colin Trevorrow has broken his silence about being pink-slipped on “Star Wars : Episode IX”. In a chat with Empire, the “Jurassic World” helmer said he got to share his screenplay with Mark Hamill and George Lucas before being let go from the project.
“I don’t want to talk too much about it because I don’t want to affect the way that fans get to see these films. When we were kids, these movies came to us from far away. They were a gift. And the more we talk about how they’re made, the more it reveals that they’re just movies. But they’re not just movies, they’re more than that. Beyond that, I got the opportunity to tell a story that is a celebration of everything I believe in, I got to tell it to George Lucas and I got to tell it to Luke Skywalker, and those are experiences I will cherish for the rest of my life.”
