Oscar-winning Usual Suspects screenwriter slams Rogue One re-write rumours and defends director

The news that Disney execs are unhappy with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: Rogue One and have ordered reshoots for the film has sparked a flurry of activity this week. Everything from what the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:additional shooting may contain to whether or not they were always plannꩵed has been scrutinized, which is par for the course for big-budget films these days.
One such rumour that made its way to the web speculated that Oscar-winning scribe Chris McQuarrie would work with director Gareth Edwards on the reshoots, but accordiღng to the veteran writer-director that's not the case🍸:
. "For any outlet to say so is not only wrong, it’s irresponsible. Gareth Edwards is a talented filmmaker who deserves the benefit of the doubt. Making a film – let alone a Star Wars chapter – is hard enough without the internet trying to deliberately downgrade one’s years of hard work. Who does that even serve? Let him make his movie in peace".Attn: bloggers. I'm reading some horseshit rumors tonight. You know where to find me. Do your jobs🐓.
While McQuarrie definitely makes some valid points, it's unlikely his comments will do much to assuage those who are presently a little worried about Rogue One. As someone who enjoyed Edwards' previous big-budget film Godzilla, I share McQuarrie's confidence in the director's abilities. Furthermore, reshoots don't exactly make a film wಌorse; if anything, the extra material Edwards and co have to play with in the editing room will only make the film better.
D𓄧irected by Gareth Edwards and starring Felicity Jones, Diego L🌄una, Riz Ahmed, Ben Mendelsohn, Forest Whitaker, Mads Mikkelsen and Alan Tudyk, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is scheduled to open in UK and US cinemas on December 16, 2016.
