I don't understand how filming could progress so far if the producers and executives were unhappy with the results. I am wondering how the Director's credit will read on the final film.

Ewan McGregor already appeared in Force Awakens... and what with McGregor's incredible rep standing in for Alec Guinness, seeds are already sown for the inevitable full-blown Obi-Wan film (or trilogy) starring McGregor and what will undoubtedly be one of Disney's biggest blockbuster Star Wars releases.
And as far as Howard in for the Han Solo film?
It comes down to Disney/Lucasfilm knowing that a big name director will help counter some of the inevitable bad taste in the public's mouths from seeing the original directors ousted because they couldn't help themselves from making the Solo film too much of a comedy.Last edited by huedell; Jun 25, '17, 10:34 PM."No. No no no no no no.

Oh, come'on Hector...get over it! Say all the bad things you want about the prequels, but Ewan McGregor wasn't the problem! In fact, he was GREAT as Obiwan(especially the 3rd one). He was the best thing about those movies.sigpicComment

Seriously... even tho' I myself am not too keen on the prequels, praise for McGregor's Kenobi was universal (from me included).
And I can't help but think that, following "the big three", McGregor was the guy Disney most had their eyes set on to sell a Star Wars film...
...difference being that McGregor would be the actual lead (as opposed to functioning bridging the saga to Ridley).
That said (for a bit of fun):
Evazan: He doesn't like the heat.
Obi-Wan: I don't make the weather. Besides, it's a dry heat.
Evazan: I like your take on weather! You must watch the Weather Channel! We're moisture-vaporator repair men. Tatooine is the least humid planet in twelve systems!
Obi-Wan: Still, you must be careful.
Evazan: Yeah! If you have a biology more suitable for oceans...
[Dr. Evazan indicates Walrus Man.]
Evazan (cont.): ...and not properly hydrated while on the job, you'll be dead!
[Obi-Wan, speaking to Dr. Evazan nods toward Walrus Man.]
Obi-Wan: This over-heated one's not worth losing to sunstroke. Now let me get him some blue water.
[Dr. Evazan shrugs politely. Walrus Man smiles at Obi-Wan]
end scene!

But its a dry heat. Maybe Obi-Wan hooking up with a Sand lady. Maybe sharing a cave with Jar Jar, they could be the original odd couple.Last edited by thunderbolt; Jun 26, '17, 5:00 PM.You must try to generate happiness within yourself.
