New ‘Star Wars’ Update Spells Bad News For James Mangold’s ‘Swamp Thing’ Movie


James Mangold has gotten very busy & it looks like he will remain in the Disney fold for the next few years before focusing on Swamp Thing for DC Studios.

On Friday, the Hollywood Reporter broke the news that playwright and screenwriter Beau Willimon is going to co-write Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi, that will be directed by Mangold. While that movie has no release date, Mangold is expected to turn his attention to Dawn of the Jedi after he wraps A Complete Unknown, his Bob Dylan biopic that stars Timothée Chalamet and is being made by Disney arm Searchlight Pictures. Previously, Mangold saw the leadership change at DC Studios under James Gunn as an opportunity to pitch his vision for a dark, gothic horror take on Swamp Thing’s origins.
