The Resistance Broadcast: Star Wars Podcast

While not yet confirmed by Lucasfilm or Disney, many major Hollywood publications are reporting Spider-Man “Home” trilogy and Star Wars: Skeleton Crew Director Jon Watts has been tapped to direct the next Star Wars saga film. The reports connect Watts to the mysterious trilogy Simon Kinberg has been developing over the past two years. Can Watts pull casual Star Wars movie fans back into theaters for its next saga film? And do we feel he is the right choice to take on the responsibility? We’ll dig into all of it and even have fun with some light speculation.

Beyond the space battles, laser swords, and magical powers, there is a really human story. On today’s episode we will discuss which Star Wars characters we relate to most.
