Yesterday we reported about The Wall Street Journal's scathing report on the behind-the-scenes drama of "Solo: A Star Wars Story." I don't know how I missed this, but there's a tidbit on Collin Trevorrow and his episode 9 screenplay which was all but shunned by Lucasfilm head Kathleen Kennedy:
According to the outlet, Trevorrow was tapped following the success he achieved with Jurassic World and wrote a script with Jack Thorpe. Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy was reportedly unhappy with the first draft, with Trevorrow also feeling frustrated with the story he turned in. The filmmaker reportedly asked for another chance at writing the script, though Kennedy didn't allow him this chance, leading to the departure.
