Star Wars: The Last Jedi – Rian Johnson's Behind-The-Scenes Pictures Will Be a Book

Published Sat, 16 Dec 2017 07:15:26 -0600

At Star Wars Celebration we learned that Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson took over a 1000 black and white behind-the-scenes pictures during the filming of the movie. He's shared some of the photos at conventions and also on his instagram but fans have been wondering if we were ever going to see all of those pictures. In an interview with /Film Johnson confirmed that the pictures are going to be published in a book and possibly an exhibit.

Yeah, I had that camera on my shoulder the whole shoot. I literally took thousands of shots. So we've been already working and on Looper, I did the exact same thing, but I just did like a little book for the crew. Because this is what it is, I think we're gonna put together a really nice book and put it out there maybe try and do like a little exhibit or something. We print them up big or something.

Fans love behind-the-scenes pictures so it's not surprising that people want to take a look at the many pictures Johnson took on set.

It'd be fun. Yeah, they're really there are some cool shots and it's a nice like… … It's not even that they're like great photos, it's [unique] and that's why I started doing it. I'm like the only person on set who's not gonna get tackled if they take a picture of something sensitive. I can take a picture of anything I want. And I have this unique perspective of being right behind the camera for this whole process. So I don't know, I think it's interesting.

That unique point of view is something that fans are going to be hungry to see. The fact that Johnson is willing to let fans take a look behind-the-scenes through his person lens is awesome.

Now, can we get a copy of that picture book from Looper now?
