Damon Lindelof Details His Scrapped ‘Star Wars’ That Would Have Tackled “Nostalgia” & “Revision”

Not so long ago in a galaxy not that far away, Damon Lindelof was plotting to leave his mark on the Star Wars universe.

The 3x Emmy winner recently opened up about being “fired off of a Star Wars movie” after struggling with “getting the tone right” in his planned installment in the Lucasfilm and Disney franchise.

“They asked me, ‘What do you think a Star Wars movie should be?’ And I said, ‘Here’s what it should be.’ And they said, ‘Great, you’re hired,'” he recalled on the House of R podcast. “And then two years later, I was fired.”
