Could we seePeter Dinklageshow up in a futureStar Warsmovie? If Disney and Lucasfilm can find a place for him, he wants in. The actor is currently at Sundance promoting his new movieI Think We’re Alone Now. During an interview, the belovedGame of Thronesstar revealed that he wants a part in aStar Warsmovie. AnyStar Warsmovie. He even decided to make some droid sound, which he joked was his way of “auditioning.”
Peter Dinklage and Elle Fanning, who star inI Think We’re Alone Now, along with director Reed Morano, were being interviewed for IMDB at Sundance by Kevin Smith. Because Morano was recently brought up as apossible female director of a future Star Wars movie, the subject of a galaxy far, far away came up. While Morano has had a meeting with Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy, which prompted the discussion, Dinklage chimed in and revealed he’d be happy to just to have a part in one of the upcoming movies.
“I just want a part!”
Game of Thronesseason 8 is currently filming and, since it’s the final season, Peter Dinklage will have some more free time in the near future. That would allow him the time to be in aStar Warsmovie. But will it happen?The popular actor is in Avengers: Infinity War, which means he’ll have an established relationship with Disney. And he’s a loveable actor who could fit in very well in that universe.
As for Reed Morano, it was recently revealed that she had ameeting with Lucasfilm. In this new interview, she clarifies that it was “just a meeting,” despite the fact that many took it as a sign thatThe Handmaid’s Taledirector would be the first female to helm aStar Warsmovie. When the subject first came up in a recent interview, here’s what she had to say about her meeting.
“I guess she (Kennedy) was watching with her daughter and then called people and was like, ‘Who’s this Reed person?’ She probably thought I was a guy because of my name. She’s amazing. We’re talking about adventure movies, and I’m not even remembering that she produced Goonies. Any movie that I put my finger on that I loved when I was growing up was a movie that she produced. Anyway, it was a great meeting. Obviously, I can’t say anything about what else we were talking about.”
Who knows? These meetings don’t happen for no reason. If Reed Morano does wind up directing a futureStar Warsmovie, maybe she could re-team with Peter Dinklage? As for what that movie would ultimately be? We’ll have to wait and see what the future holds. But it would be fun seeing Dinklage making his way across the galaxy as abounty hunteror something along those lines. you may check out the full interview clip, courtesy of theIMDB YouTubechannel, for yourself below.
