More seriously, Waititi said, “But we’ve got a story. I’m really excited by it because it feels very me. I tend to go down that little sincerity alleyway in my films. I like to fool the viewer into thinking, ‘Ha it’s this’ and then them going, ‘Damn it, you made me feel something!'”
Waititi is no stranger to Star Wars, as he voiced the droid IG-11 on the Disney+ TV show The Mandalorian, and he also directed the Season 1 finale of that show.
Waititi’s new Star Wars movie is likely some time off still. The writer and director recently wrapped filming on 2022’s Thor: Love & Thunder with Chris Hemsworth.
In other news, Waititi recently played a role in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad. He can also now be seen in 20th Century’s video game movie Free Guy, which is in theaters from today, August 13.
