We may never know, but the idea of a director walking away from a Disney era Star Wars movie is nothing new.
That means projects like the Boba Fett movie and the long-awaited Obi-Wan movie are, at least for now, off the table.
Disney and Lucasfilm have yet to formally announce the Obi-Wan movie, but there have been multiple reports of pre-production work taking place.
While that’s disappointing, a new rumor states that Stephen Daldry, the director who had been attached to helm the Obi-Wan Kenobi standalone for nearly a year, walked away from the project weeks before Solo: A Star Wars Story even arrived in theaters.
