Star Wars Is Everywhere: Ep. LXXXII Posted By Mike on June 26, 2012
It's been a while so you may have forgotten about Star Wars is Everywhere, but Star Wars is Everywhere has yet to forget about you. I have no idea what that means! Let's get into it...
Did you know that the director of The Exorcist, William Friedkin, had the chance to produce Star Wars? Apparently so according to an article at DailyRecord.co.uk. Here's an excerpt:
"At the time, Friedkin, Francis Ford Coppola and Peter Bogdanovich of The Last Picture Show fame had teamed up to form The Director Company.
Friedkin ? at Edinburgh Film Festival for the premiere of his controversial new movie Killer Joe ? said: ?I had an opportunity to produce Star Wars.
?Francis gave us the script at the time when no studio wanted to make it. Bogdanovich and I looked at it and scratched our heads.
?I asked Francis if he was going to direct and he said George Lucas was. George had only made American Graffiti and I didn?t think he could bring it off.
?Well, I was wrong. I guess I made a little mistake. But I did not know where the audience was going. Star Wars changed the business.?'
