Are you telling me Disney turned down the chance for a Steven Soderbergh STAR WARS movie??

Adam Driver says he was developing a new Star Wars movie ‘The Hunt for Ben Solo’ with Steven Soderbergh

• Set after ‘The Rise of Skywalker’

• Lucasfilm loved it, but Disney said no — “They didn’t see how Ben Solo was alive”

"It was one of the coolest fucking scripts I've ever been a part of'

The onion is often great but this is a bit of a miss.

Firstly this "fued" is rather old at this point, and Charli hasn't really done anything about it aside from post photos of all her friends at her various wedding celebrations.
