Making movies for an adult audience was never a priority for Star Wars
Since practically its first film, the Star Wars saga has offered us all kinds of installments that both adults and children have fallen in love with. George Lucas’ universe is vast in terms of variety and we have seen humor, horror, action and a lot of drama, but it is true that we have seen few works with an adult tone.
He talked about this Dave Filonione of the most important figures in the company today, who has revealed and left the door open to the possibility of carrying out projects not recommended for minors, inspired by Marvel’s decision to do so with Deadpool and Wolverine.
“I think the saga encompasses all kinds of styles, the creatives of these particular stories that drive it is kind of the most important thing, and they have to make something that is within their comfort zone. Otherwise, imagine that everything “The world is going to come and pretend they’re George Lucas when they’re not.”
Although Filoni is open to this proposal and his influence may be relevant, it should also be noted that the person who must be convinced of this decision is the head of Lucasfilm, Kathleen Kennedy. Therefore, the possibilities decrease considerably, although they are never zero.
It is clear that it would be exciting to see a film full of violence and blood within the universe Star Wars, but we must also remember that George Lucas said not long ago that his saga was never focused on adult audiences, but rather for the little ones. We will see what direction the franchise takes in the future, but anything can happen given what we have seen.
