Gareth Edwards says he is “happy to go on” by Star Wars; He doesn’t think that Rogue One is the best of the Disney era

Director Gareth Edwards has returned to the spotlight with Jurassic World RebirthBut of course, questions about his time in Star Wars The galaxy will follow again. While Rogue One he earned fans and critics praise and saw a renewed appreciation thanks to Andor Prequel series, Edwards himself does not cling exactly to the franchise.

Speaking with Gamesradar+, Edwards clarified that he went on:

“I mean, I am only eternally raised by the fact that I don’t walk on the other side of the road and the non -shouts that I have ruined their childhood.”

But while Rogue One has been retained by many as the best Star Wars Film of the Disney Era, Edwards does not share that feeling. In fact, he says:

“I don’t agree with this. I appreciate the people who say it and I understand why they say it, but I am happy to go on.”

For Edwards, it looks like the legacy of Rogue One It is not something about which he is interested in hitting his career. Instead, it focuses on the long game, citing the arch of the filmmakers such as John Carpenter As inspiration:

“I have always heard – and I don’t keep any of my films in great consideration in this way – but I think that, really, the proof of a film is as it is seen, 10, 20 years later … I watch many of my heroes, and that they would have said stories, and it seems incredible as this.

And you go, “What, after the thing?” For example, this is a masterpiece. It makes no sense, but obviously he ridden a little those roller coaster. And so teaches you as a director, not ride the Russian mountains, playing the long -term game. It concerns how people feel towards the end of your career, really, and therefore cling to that. “

With Jurassic World Rebirth Plined for cinemas on July 2, Edwards has returned to the successful territory, but it seems much more interested in what the future reserves than to reformulate the past.
