Apparently Disney are not happy with the first cut of the film and have ordered the director to do some reshoots in July.
http://pagesix.com/2016/05/30/disney...tar-wars-film/ Could be good or bad news really, perhaps they just want a bit more action in the middle of the film. |

Or it might be a good film that's being ruined by studio interference. It wouldn't be the first.

Reshoots, further reshoots, characters added/dropped, entire scenes scrapped...
Many a good film has followed this path, though not quite with the same publicity perhaps. |

Apparently the rumour is some of the reshoots are to are to include a young Han Solo, now they've cast the roll it makes sense and sets him up for his own film in a few years.

Doubtful. This is the same director of he 2014 Godzilla film which was boring beyond belief.

Here's THR's take on it: Quote:
This takes place just before A New Hope and leads up to the 10 minutes before that classic film begins. You have to match the tone!
Would they really do that and include new Solo? There's some bluff going on here I think.http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hea...ar-wars-898562 |

Went to see Civil War the other day (finally) and caught the trailer for this. Beyond the appearance of Donnie Yen, this was really poor looking. Just came across as really cheap and unconvincing imho. After the disappointing TFA I'm wondering if Disney doesn't quite have the handle on this Star Wars lark in the same way they do with Marvel.

I read 40% of it will be re-filmed. Never a good sign.

In other words, the changes involve more intimate moments not redoing entire battle sequences or plot lines. Its a lot of talking in cockpits, as one insider described the new footage.

If they really needed to reshoot 40% of it (which suggests a World War Z level of chaos) I imagine the first thing they'd do is shift the release date. You'd get a typical PR move about extra time to fulfill our vision etc.

World War Z was still a hit though.

Never said it wasn't. But if the reshoots are as extensive as rumoured in order to get a better film, they're pushing it regarding the release date.

![]() As for reshoots I'm not remotely surprised. This is the director that directed the painfully dull Godzilla back in 2014. |

All big films have reshoots / additional photography these days. This is being blown out of proportion. Someone has leaked that the studio didn't like the furst cut - which may or may not be true - and has seen a chance to make some headlines by suggesting the reshoot (already scheduled) was because the film is bad. It's possible, maybe even probable, that they've changed what is being shot as a result of feedback but again that's nothing unusual. A lot of the changes they want will probably be made in the edit anyway.
It basically sounds like Disney found the first cut (it's only the first cut ffs) a bit too dark and 'straight' for what they want from a SW film i.e. a bit too '12' when they want more 'PG'. Personally I like the sound of a darker, more serious film. Chances are if Disney had owned the franchise Empire would never have got made. Anyway, the teaser looked good to me, even if it does look like they've erased Kyle Katarn from existence. |

Look, we all know what we're living for as far as Star Wars is concerned.
The return of Boba Fett... ... in his original attire (plus a sassy new costume and revamped mask) with flashback scenes as to how he escaped being lunch. Make sure to drop Boba back in, everything will be fine. Ebay would explode.

Just heard that a new 3 minute trailer will be airing next week on 15th. It'll be during a documentary about TFA, and will coincide with the start of Celebration Europe.

Also, during Celebration they will be livestreaming a special Rogue One panel (July 15 4pm), when director Gareth Edwards will join Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy & guests.
