And he credits the online controversy over The Last Jedi for his development of Knives Out. Apparently one of the characters (played by Jaeden Martell from IT) is a teenager that moonlights as an alt-right troll.

More than anything I think Disney doesn't know what to do with Star Wars. There has been constant turmoil since the beginning. The original writers of Force Awakens were fired, their script was rejected and rewritten by JJ Abrams. They had to hire Tony Gilroy to fix Rogue One. They fired Josh Trank, Colin Trevorrow, Lord and Miller, and now Benioff and Weiss. Whatever anyone's opinion on Last Jedi, it was turned in on time and on budget (by tentpole movie standards) with no behind the scenes drama or major reshoots, and from the sounds of it Rian Johnson has a great working relationship with Disney. I think he's saying his trilogy is up in the air right now, because the future of Star Wars in general is up in the air right now. Their focus is Rise of Skywalker and The Mandalorian. Johnson's focus is promoting Knives Out and developing whatever he's doing next.

I would normally feel bad for a guy that took risks that didn't pay off, but he's such a fucking asshole. And that's why his trilogy will never happen. He fought the fanbase. They'll never accept or respect him again. Some directors will never learn. Fuck with the fanbase at your own risk.

As someone who liked The Last Jedi, I'm totally cool with another Star Wars movie from him.
