I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

It sure seems like a lot of the problem with getting Star Wars films made is Iger and the Disney execs, not Kennedy or the people at Lucasfilm. Gives some clarity on why they’ve churned through *so* many filmmakers without anything to show for it.

Kennedy also effectively calls Iger and Bergman cowards who are too chickenshit to greenlight any Star Wars projects that are not safe, cookie cutter choices (referring to HUNT FOR BEN SOLO as well as projects from Mangold, Waititi, an Glover).

I remember when I came into this job, the first thing Bob Iger said to me was, "Be bold." I've always liked that because I think you have to be bold and you have to be willing to take risks with people and with ideas.
Otherwise you are just doing the same thing. Right now we're in an era where companies are so risk-averse, and I get it. I hear all the conversations. They've got Wall Street to please, and I get it, but I also believe that that's what contributes to things disappearing, ultimately. I just think you have to take those chances.

Everything I just reeled off to you is taking a bit of a chance because none of those filmmakers are just walking in trying to do same old, same old. I'm excited by that, but the studio's nervous about that, and that's kind of where it sits at the moment.

I googled your symptoms, turns out you need an escape to a fantasy world that feels like cozy LotR. 🌿

Happy New Year 2026!
The year of the Horse 🔥
I imagine him as the bringer of spring. Just perhaps not a very gentle one…

I look forward to another year, I love you all! #art
