Zack Snyder Recalls ‘Rebel Moon’ Pitch To Lucasfilm: ”I’m Gonna Fix ‘Star Wars’ Cause They Had Gone Astray”

Having had the term “toxic fandom” coined around their poor behavior, it’s no secret that some sectors of “Star Wars” fandom have been rather belligerent. Many were up in arms about Rian Johnson’s “The Last Jedi” and even J.J.

As we all know, after a long break from theaters and a pivot on Disney+ with TV series, Lucasfilm has ambitious plans to return “Star Wars” to cinemas. While “The Mandalorian And Grogu” might be the next “Star Wars” film to hit theaters (and if it does, the next available release date is May 2026), there’s also another one nipping at its heels.

Daisy Ridley may have starred in several films since the last “Star Wars” movie, 2019’s “The Rise Of Starwalker,” but for general audiences she’ll always be Rey. Is that for better or worse? Well, even diehard “Star Wars” fans aren’t thrilled that the heroine is the paternal granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine.

Madonna is facing a class action lawsuit filed by two fans after her December concerts in New York City’s Barclays Center began “over two hours” later than scheduled.On Wednesday (January 17), two ticket buyers, Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden filed a complaint alleging that the singer had breached her contract with attendees and violated New York state laws by beginning her concert on December 13 at 10:30PM rather than the stipulated 8:30PM timing.In the introduction of the lawsuit, which was first shared by Billboard, Fellows’ and Hadden’s attorneys wrote that “defendants’ actions constitute not just a breach of their contracts with Plaintiffs and Class Members, but also a wanton exercise in false advertising, negligent representation, and unfair and deceptive trade practices.” The full document can be read here.Extending the accusations to Madonna’s concerts at the same venue on December 14 and 16 – which allegedly also began “over two hours late” – the attorneys claim that the concerts’ stipulated 8:30PM start time as represented on the tickets was “material to Plaintiffs’ agreement to purchase the tickets”, and that Madonna’s failure to satisfy the expectations of an 8:30PM start time caused legal damage to concertgoers who “had to get up early to go to work and/or take care of their family responsibilities the next day”.In addition, the attorneys claimed that the concerts’ 1AM conclusion resulted in ticket holders being faced with “limited public transportation, limited ride-sharing, and/or increased public and private transportation costs”, adding that a number were left “stranded in the middle of the night”.On the violation of New York state laws, the attorneys invoked the state’s General Business Law 149,

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Jodie Foster has shocked the “Star Wars” fandom by confirming she was offered the role of Princess Leia in “Star Wars,” which unquestionably would’ve changed the course of her career. The two-time Oscar winner told Jimmy Fallon on “The Tonight Show” that she was already locked into a contract for a Disney movie at the time and didn’t want to break it in order to join a galaxy far, far away. Foster did not reveal what Disney movie, but the timeline suggests it might’ve been “Freaky Friday,” which was released a year before “Star Wars.” “You’ve been in so many iconic roles, and we love what you do,” Fallon said during the show.

OK, so we just detailed Zack Snyder talking about pitching Lucasfilm an R-rated “Star Wars” space opera movie. They eventually turned it down, and he turned that idea into “Rebel Moon,” which is on Netflix now, with a sequel, “Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver,” arriving on the streaming service in April.

Even though it would appear that Lucasfilm has its ducks in a row regarding the future of “Star Wars” films (even if the studio throws the odd curveball), it wasn’t that long ago when things really felt like absolute chaos. People were hired to develop films, conflicting reports would follow.

The Mandalorian was the first of the Disney Plus Star Wars TV shows. Now it will pioneer more uncharted territory as the first Disney Plus Star Wars show to get its own movie! Titled The Mandalorian & Grogu, This movie will seemingly take the place of Mando Season 4. Hollywood News Daily is here to tell you everything you need to know about this upcoming project! The Mandalorian & Grogu will be directed by Jon Favreau as well as Kathleen Kennedy and Dave Filoni on as producers for the movie.

Leave it to Lucasfilm to throw us a curveball when it comes to “Star Wars” films. Just when we were all set to speculate about the three films currently in development, led by the next film being Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy’s feature starring Daisy Ridley, Lucasfilm has gone ahead and turned everyone upside down.

Harlan Coben‘s Fool Me Once has rocketed to the top of the UK streaming charts, unseating Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon on its way up.

Valerie Wu Intern “John Wick” director Chad Stahelski says he wants to “take a swing” at making a “Star Wars” film. In a recent interview with “Happy Sad Confused” host Josh Horowitz, the action-thriller director opened up about a potential franchise he wants to be a part of in the future, bringing up the sci-fi favorite. “I’m a ‘Star Wars’ guy, like, the first ‘Star Wars’ changed my life,” said Stahelski.

It’s not controversial to say the “Star Wars” fandom has its fair share of toxicity, especially when it comes to misogyny and racism. Watching certain segments of the fandom lose their minds over the fact that a woman (Daisy Ridley) was the lead in the most recent films made was shocking and disturbing to watch.

Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon is still No. 1 on Netflix.

It may have been slaughtered by critics, but Rebel Moon — Part One: A Child of Fire was comfortably the most-watched title over the holiday season among UK Netflix subscribers.

Well, you gotta imagine, like the guy who did Deepfake Of Luke Skywalker and did it better than Lucasfilm (and then got hired for a job), the creator of this new “Star Wars” animated video is likely getting a call from Lucasfilm Animation and or Dave Filoni himself. So the aptly titled Star Wars YouTube channel Hello There has created a very inventive adaptation.

Alright, you know the drill. The Happy Sad Confused confused isn’t taking a break over the holidays, even in the new year.

Adam Driver’s been really hitting the pavement doing his best to promote Michael Mann’s “Ferrari,” a film he is clearly very proud of (and as a smaller Neon independent film, likely needs all the press it can get, as it only came out on Christmas Day; listen to our podcast interview with Mann here). And you’ll likely want to file this under, “duh, no sh*t,” but hear us out first.

Justice League” as well as Netflix’s new “Rebel Moon — Part One: A Child of Fire,” said he’d like to see the British superspy get a time-traveling makeover while the 60-year-old series reinvents itself.“It’d be cool to see, like, 20-year-old James Bond,” Snyder told the Atlantic. “The humble roots that he comes from. Whatever trauma of youth that makes you be able to be James Bond.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Zack Snyder has spent the last several years attempting to launch new IP for Netflix, be it his action zombie epic “Army of the Dead” or his new space opera franchise “Rebel Moon,” but the 57-year-old filmmaker is better known for putting his stamp on famed IP, from “Watchmen” to “Man of Steel,” “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” and “Justice League.” Would he ever return to tackling a pre-existing franchise? “I mean, like, how much IP is there?” Snyder recently said in an interview with The Atlantic before thinking of at least one bit of IP he might like to tackle one day. “It’d be cool to see, like, 20-year-old James Bond,” Snyder said.

Christopher Nolan is praising Zack Snyder for his influence in the superhero science-fiction film genre.
