Director Patty Jenkins says she is aiming for a great Star Wars spin-off with Rogue Squadron that will be culturally in the style of her blockbuster Wonder Woman films.
Jenkins, who ran two superhero tent poles – Wonder Woman (2017) and the recently released Wonder Woman in 1984 for DC Films – is on his way to Disney-owned Lucasfilm to lead Rogue Squadron.
The new Star Wars film will introduce a new generation of Starfighter pilots who earn their wings and risk their lives in a high-speed, cross-border thrill and move the saga into the future era of the galaxy official plot released by Lucasfilm.
It will be the first feature film in the long-running science fiction series to be released in 2023 under the direction of a woman.
When asked about Rogue Squadron, Jenkins PTI said in an exclusive phone interview from Los Angeles, I obviously know more than I can tell (but) it’s culturally like Wonder Woman. “
“I strive to make a great Star Wars movie, but a very personal story in it … a strong emotion (core). I’m really excited about the fact that it offers this opportunity, ”added the 48-year-old director, whose father was a fighter pilot.
Jenkins previously told PTI that it was “questionable” whether a third film in the Wonder Woman franchise would be shot after Warner Bros. decided to go for a theatrical and digital model to release its films.
The filmmaker said she would only like to return to a third film if Warner Bros “is a full theater studio again”.
“Before the pandemic, the world would have gone with it. We would probably even have gotten a deal on Wonder Woman 3 and figured out when and how I could add that to my schedule.
“Now everything is much more questionable as to whether we will do it at all and how we will do it. So this is going to be an interesting thing. I’d still like to do it, but only (if) Warner Bros is a full theater studio again, ”Jenkins had said.
Wonder Woman 1984 was released on December 24th by Warner Bros. in Indian theaters in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. The film, hosted by Gal Gadot, also features Kristen Wiig, Pedro Pascal, Chris Pine, Robin Wright and Connie Nielson.
The film, presented by Warner Bros Pictures, is a production of Atlas Entertainment / Stone Quarry.
