Star Wars: Patty Jenkins Returns to Write Rogue Squadron Movie

Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins has revealed that she’s back to working on the long-delayed Star Wars Rogue Squadron movie.

On the Talking Pictures podcast, Jenkins explained that she’s got a new deal with Lucasfilm that has brought her back to the Rogue Squadron movie. The filmmaker originally left Rogue Squadron to work on Wonder Woman 3, which was reported last August to no longer be in development after the changes at DC Studios.

“So, when I left Star Wars to do Wonder Woman 3, I thought maybe I’ll come back to Star Wars after Wonder Woman 3. So we did a deal for that to happen, started a deal, but I thought I was doing Wonder Woman. When that went away, Lucasfilm and I were like, ‘Oh, we’ve got to finish this deal.’ We finished the deal right as the strike was happening,” Jenkins stated.

“So I now owe a draft of Star Wars, and so we will see what happens there. You know, like, who knows? It’s hard. They have a hard job in front of them of what’s the first movie they’re going to do. They have other directors who have been working, but I am now, you know, I’m back on doing Rogue Squadron and we’ll see what happens. We need to develop, you know, get it to where we’re both super happy with it.”
