Levy's enthusiasm for the project is palpable. Reflecting on his journey, he shared,
If you had told me back when I was directing Big Fat Liar that someday I'd be working on the biggest TV show in the world and directing Marvel followed by Star Wars, I would've told you ‘You're f**king nuts.' But it is so thrilling.
While specific details about the plot remain under wraps, Levy's track record suggests we can expect a blend of heart, humor, and epic storytelling. He's no stranger to building immersive worlds, having successfully combined comedy and emotion in his previous works.

I have this golden ticket into a galaxy far away, and I'm going to devote myself to developing a screenplay that gives me the privilege of making this movie.
The journey to bringing this Star Wars film to life is still in its early stages, with Levy first needing to complete his work on Deadpool. However, his commitment to the Star Wars universe is clear.
I want to be one of the movies that gets to the starting line because these are rare opportunities, and I want to make the most of it,
he stated.
As fans eagerly await more details, one thing is certain: Shawn Levy's entry into the Star Wars universe is set to be an unforgettable adventure, and we can't wait to see what he has in store for us.
