Star Wars: Episode VIII
After the press freaked out over comments he made associating the film’s tonal shift to the tonal shift between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back, Adam Driver has clarified what he said all along: Not that the film would be darker, butthat it would be different to The Force Awakens.
No, no. What I said was the tone of it was different, I didn’t say that it was gonna be in the vein of [it]—I was using it as an example, so poor example. Next time I should say—I’m trying to think of another sequel to a movie that’s good. When I read the script, it was not what I expected, in the best of ways.
