Having allegedly flirted with the franchise before, James Mangold was officially announced to be diving into a galaxy far, far away at the weekend’s festivities when Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi was revealed to the world.
Having proven himself a supremely talented architect of action-packed blockbuster epics through Knight and Day, The Wolverine, Logan, and the upcoming Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the Academy Award nominee is going to be a very busy man after James Gunn also corroborated the reports that he’d be pulling double duty to write and direct the DCU’s Swamp Thing.
Mangold has already compared his Star Wars project to a biblical epic in the vein of The Ten Commandments and Ben-Hur, but it seems as though he’s not entirely sold on Taika Waititi’s unique approach to cinema, after it was uncovered by internet sleuths that he’d like a tweet that found fans ironically celebrating that Celebration came and went without any word on the Thor: Love and Thunder creator’s in-development feature.
It looks as though he’s since removed the like, but nothing is ever gone for good on the internet, something Mangold must have been aware of. While it’s never encouraging to see one creative mind decry another’s work, it’s not exactly a sentiment he holds all on his lonesome. There’s a lot of old and new Star Wars supporters alike out there who don’t want Waititi anywhere near the property, but we can’t say we were expecting the esteemed veteran behind Cop Land, Walk the Line, and many more to be one of them.
