I’m dreading the eventual announcement that the Russo bros. will now be developing a Star Wars trilogy.

Potentially?

Not disappointed at all. I think they are good at recognizing good storytelling without actually being high caliber creators. Also, as discussed previously, too much Star Wars too fast is not a good thing, and Disney’s aversion to narrative risk will potentially turn SW into Marvel-style, no-stakes drivel.

If they were let go due to GoT backlash would they really let people know though? Even with the statement it feels a lot like what happened to Colin Trevorrow after The Book of Henry was destroyed by critics. They’re apparently life long star wars fans and only signed the Netflix deal after they signed with LucasFilm. It seems odd they would cite the Netflix deal as the reason they are leaving. Did they really think they could spearhead a entire new Star Wars trilogy AND develop/run a new Netflix series? Not really concerned though, still plenty of Star Wars movies on the horizon.
