Nowadays, it seems like everyone is talking about Brad Bird. The writer/director – whose new film Tomorrowland hits theaters on Friday – has been buzzed about lately for reasons unrelated to his highly anticipated latest project, which – as its name implies – is inspired by the Walt Disney World attraction of the same name. After years of speculaton, Bird recently confirmed that a sequel to his own beloved Pixar animated film The Incredibles will finally be his next project, after years of fan demand and speculation. However, the more intriguing (and potentially exciting) news to drop recently is in regards to the filmmaker’s possible involvement in another franchise: a little something known as Star Wars.
