Stephen Daldry is Star Wars’ new hope.
The Oscar-nominated director behind Billy Elliot and The Hours is in early talks to direct a Star Wars standalone movie centering on Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Sources say talks are at the earliest of stages and that the project has no script. If a deal makes, Daldry would oversee the development and writing with Lucasfilm brass. It’s not known at this stage if Ewan McGregor will reprise his role.

If the movie shows the demise of Jar Jar Binks, 2 Billion Box Office guaranteed.

And imagine if at the end, Darth Maul goes back to his HQ and Liam Neeson greets him with “Well done, apprentice. Mission Accomplished.”
