Although production is yet to get underway on Star Wars: Episode VIII – although the script is now out to the cast – Jurassic World helmer Colin Trevorrow is hard at work on development of the final chapter of Disney’s Sequel Trilogy.
Speaking at a press conference at Sundance, the director revealed that he prefers period movies shot on film instead of digital, adding that he plans to use film stock for Episode IX.
“There’s something in my brain that says, ‘well they didn’t have video cameras then,'” said Trevorrow. “[Star Wars] is a period film. It happened a long time ago.”

Meanwhile, Trevorrow also revealed that he’s been lobbying Disney and Lucasfilm to shoot certain plates for the film in space: “I asked the question, ‘Is it possible for us to shoot IMAX film plates in actual space for Star Wars?’ And I haven’t gotten an answer yet, but they’ve shot IMAX in space!”
Okay… maybe that’s taking location shooting just a little too far?

Star Wars: Episode IX is set for release on May 24th 2019, but don’t be surprised if it ends up getting pushed back to December.
