Director Guillermo del Toro was attached to an unmade, previously unknown Star Wars<\/strong> project written by David Goyer, the screenwriter revealed on the latest episode<\/a> of the Happy Sad Confused<\/em> podcast, released this morning.<\/p>\n

“I wrote an unproduced Star Wars<\/strong> movie that Guillermo del Toro was going to direct,” Goyer told podcast host Josh Horowitz. “That was about four years ago.”<\/p>\n

Without going into details on what era of the Star Wars saga this project might have been set or what characters were involved, Goyer did give a brief explanation as to why the project never went forward into production.<\/p>\n

“There was just a lot of behind [the scenes] stuff going on at Lucasfilm at the time,” he stated. “But it’s a cool script.”<\/p>\n

Del Toro confirmed the nugget of news on Twitter, stating “Can’t say much. Maybe two letters ‘J’ and ‘BB’ is that three letters?”<\/p>\n

True. Can't say much. Maybe two letters "J" and "BB" is that three letters? https:\/\/t.co\/qpGaSD3y7F<\/a><\/p>\n
