    That headline is bad. It makes it sound like two directors were caught in flagrante delicto.

    Two directors attached in less than a month, we're off to a great start. I'll hand it to universal that they're trying to get visual filmmakers at least.

      It's also less confusing a choice when you remember Edwards' first big break was Godzilla (2014), while Rogue One was finished by Tony Gilroy. Evidently Edwards knows how to shoot big lizards.

        I do believe that Edward’s has the chops to pull this off. Colin Treverow he ain’t. Edward’s has a great sense of scale and can make big things feel huge and regular things feel tiny. He has a distinct style. He can also shot an action sequence that’s easy to follow and engaging. Good choice all around if we simply have to dig deeper into this dry well.

        Weird. I only hit post once. Guess I'll delete this one.
