Disney has a secret Star Wars horror project in the works, according to Andor showrunner Tony Gilroy.
The mind behind the latest critical hit from a galaxy far, far away commented on Lucasfilm’s behind-the-scenes activities during a recent conversation with Business Insider. When asked how he might tackle a more sinister Star Wars project, he teased that the idea is one that Disney is already working on.
“They're doing that. I think they're doing that,” Gilroy said of the Star Wars horror project. “I think that's in the works, yeah.”
If accurate, it would mean fans could finally see Star Wars explore the Dark Side in a way that’s never been seen on the screen before, though what exactly the project is remains shrouded in mystery. It could materialize as a TV series, movie, or even something else entirely, and there’s no word on who exactly is leading the charge creatively. It could be years before we hear more about what Lucasfilm is cooking up when it comes to a horror Star Wars project, but Gilroy’s comments at least suggest someone at Disney is listening.
