       Taika Waititi's Star Wars Movie Gets Disappointing Update   
       From Kathleen Kennedy   
       ---------------------------------------------------------   
       Lucasfilm's President Kathleen Kennedy recently shared an update   
       on the Star Wars movie which will be helmed by Taika Waititi.   
       She recently confirmed that she is not taking retirement anytime   
       soon and revealed she is producing the upcoming Star Wars   
       projects. Previously, it was speculated that the producer might   
       exit Lucasfilm by the end of 2025.   
      
       The Obi-Wan Kenobi producer recently appeared for an interview,   
       in which she discussed future Star Wars projects that are being   
       developed at Lucasfilm.   
      
       As Kathleen Kennedy shared the current status update on each   
       project with Deadline, she disclosed that she had yet to receive   
       a script from director Taika Waititi concerning his Star Wars   
       movie. She told the outlet, "I keep waiting for Taika [Waititi],   
       and he is working with another writer now. He's so busy."   
      
       The Lucasfilm head expressed her admiration for Waititi's   
       previous work and added, "I love him. I think if we ever do get   
       a script from Taika, it's going to be fantastic. I already saw   
       a first act that I loved, but tying him down, it's tricky."   
      
       Moreover, Kennedy opened up about going for an approach similar   
       to Thor: Ragnarok, for Waititi's Star Wars film. She added,   
       "That's exactly the tone we're always looking for with   
       filmmakers who can pull that off. It's not like they're a dime   
       a dozen. You're really trying to find the diamond in the rough   
       and he's one of them."   
      
       In a 2023 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Taika Waititi   
       shared an update on his Star Wars project, stating he doesn't   
       want to rush the movie. He told the outlet, "My thing is I want   
       to take my time with that and get it right. I don't want to   
       rush this movie."
