Academy Award-winning director Steven Soderbergh has made it quite clear that he\u2019s not interested in returning to work on his abandoned Star Wars project, The Hunt For Ben Solo, despite leadership changes at both Lucasfilm and Disney hinting a second life for the rejected project could be a possibility<\/u><\/a>, and Star Wars superfans still trying to persuade Disney to make it<\/u><\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cNope,\u201d was Soderbergh\u2019s one-word answer, as reported by The Playlist.<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Soderbergh, who picked up an Oscar for 2000\u2019s Traffic and directed Out of Sight, Contagion, and the Ocean\u2019s trilogy, went on to clarify the idea for Star Wars: The Hunt for Ben Solo came entirely from star Adam Driver himself, and that he doesn\u2019t regret \u201cone minute of the time we spent working on that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt the work was good,\u201d said Soderbergh. \u201cIt\u2019s just good for you to be in that room and working on it. It\u2019s like CrossFit \u2013 it\u2019s good for you. It\u2019ll have a residual effect that will be unexpected at some point.\u201d<\/p>\n
