Back in March of this year, it was reported that writer Damon Lindelof — whose credits include the likes of Lost, Prometheus, The Leftovers, and Watchmen (2019) — was potentially working on an unannounced Star Wars movie with Lucasfilm. More recently, a possible update to that rumor has surfaced, indicating that he has been working with Disney (and possibly Lucasfilm) since then.
Trusted film reporter Jeff Sneider revisited his prior report about Damon Lindelof taking a trip to the galaxy far, far away as a scoop for his website The Ankler. Here’s what he originally posted:
EXCLUSIVE via @TheAnkler: I’m hearing that Damon Lindelof, the creator of WATCHMEN and the co-creator of LOST and THE LEFTOVERS, is working on a new STAR WARS movie.

Five and a half months later, Sneider offered an update explaining that Damon Lindelof has been eating lunch on the Disney lot, despite his commitment to Mrs. Davis, a drama series for NBCUniversal’s streaming service Peacock. Check out Sneider’s comments below:
UPDATE: Remember that Damon Lindelof-STAR WARS scoop I broke in March? Well, DL has been spotted dining on the Disney lot quite a bit lately and I doubt he’s working on his Peacock series up there. When will the trades confirm? Stay tuned… and SUBSCRIBE to @TheAnkler for more! pic.twitter.com/85djY7vPn9
