Josh Trank No Longer Directing STAR WARS Film - AMC Movie News

As many of you know, CHRONICLE and the new FANTASTIC FOUR director Josh Trank has been scheduled to directed the second STAR WARS spinoff movie due to hit AMC Theatres in 2018 following STAR WARS EPISODE 8 in 2017. However, a few days ago Trank announced he was leaving the project when he and Disney released the following statements. Trank said the following: "After a year of having the incredible honor of developing with the wonderful and talented people at Lucasfilm, I’m making a personal decision to move forward on a different path. I’ve put a tremendous amount of thought into this, and I know deep down in my heart that I want to pursue some original creative opportunities. That said, the Star Wars universe has always been one of my biggest influences, and I couldn’t be more excited to witness its future alongside my millions of fellow Star Wars fans. I want to thank my friends Kathleen Kennedy, Kiri Hart, Simon Kinberg, and everyone at Lucasfilm and Disney for the amazing opportunity to have been a part of this. May the Force be with you all.” A Lucasfilm representative later responded with the following comments: "It was a privilege to collaborate with Josh. We are grateful for the energy and love of ‘Star Wars’ that he brought to the process, and we wish him all the best.”
