Josh Trank’s Boba Fett movie
One of the earliest announcements Disney made after purchasing Lucasfilm was that Josh Trank, director of Chronicle, would be making a Star Wars movie. It happened the same day it was announced Gareth Edwards would also be making a Star Wars movie, which eventually turned out to be Rogue One. Years later we learned Trank’s film was going to star Boba Fett and a trailer had even been cut to announce the news—but then Lucasfilm plugged the plug. Supposedly, that happened because Trank got into some trouble making Fantastic Four, but still, it was very close.
