From there he went on to make the superhero - instigate wizard film Sleight , followed by the recent creature film Sweetheart , which is awesome andcurrently on Netflix . We talk to him about both films but , in our discussion of Sweetheart , he talked about what he wants to do with his career .
“ My crusade for the respite of my lifespan is allow the great unwashed who do n’t usually get to do the cool things in a movie get to do the cool thing . Which is a devious direction of representation,”Dillard told io9 . “ know that yeah , okay , I ’m gon na put a black womanhood at the lead . My sisters do it horror movies , weirdly , more than I do , considering I just made one . But they do n’t have many … the list is shortsighted of black women killing the creature . ”
So you have to intend whatever he and Owens have cook up , it will not be like anything Star Wars fans have seen before .
This article was update after publication to add potential plot of ground information , which was then proven to be a jape . Whatever it is , it does not take place on Exegol .
