In a new interview, director Rian Johnson discussed the entirely new 'Star Wars' trilogy that he will head for Disney and Lucasfilm. Johnson explained, "Lucasfilm actively encouraged me, not allowed me, but actively pushed me to find what was personal about this story for me. To find a story that was personal and would mean something deeply to me. And they nurtured that and protected that." Back on November 9, Disney announced that Johnson would write and direct the first film in a new 'Star Wars' trilogy, and help develop the other two.
