JJ Abrams Admits Star Wars Sequels Needed a Plan

On Today's IGN The Fix: Entertainment, in an interview with Collider, J.J. Abrams reflected on the Star Wars sequel trilogy. His newfound appreciation for preparedness is particularly interesting, given the controversy the latest Star Wars films have sparked after passing the director baton between Abrams and Rian Johnson, resulting in what many have deemed uneven storytelling, especially in Rise of the Skywalker. In other J.J.-related news, Abrams himself confirmed that the Portal Movie is still in active development. With a fully written script at Warner Brothers, Abrams expressed excitement about the pitch and take on Valve's classic puzzle game. And last but not least, Amazon is buying the iconic film studio and the company behind James Bond, MGM, in a deal worth $8.45 billion.
