Zack Snyder Refutes Report He’s Developing a STAR WARS Film

“While he is super-flattered because he is a huge fan, Zack is not involved in any way with the new Star Wars. He is currently in post on his two films, Man of Steel and 300: Battle of Artemisia.”That means he WON’T be taking part in neither Episode VII, VIII or IX nor any offshoot movies, the representative confirms. The idea of Snyder undertaking a Star Wars project isn’t far-fetched, and was even quite alluring for the fans. Lucasfilm IS scouring for a filmmaker to take on the new trilogy, which is being written by Michael Arndt. Directors, ranging from J.J. Abrams to Matthew Vaughn have surfaced as possible (or fan-dreamed) contenders. Lawrence Kasdan, who wrote 1980’s The Empire Strikes Back, and Simon Kinberg (X-Men: First Class) are two writers making stories that will be basis for shoot-offs from the numbered movies. Snyder is already too busy with his own projects – in active development on his schedule is the war drama The Last Photograph. So, I’m sorry to disappoint you, fellows, yet another one’s definitely crossed off the list as well.
