“There have been rumblings for a while now that Disney could be looking to replace Kathleen Kennedy as Lucasfilm’s President, something which does make sense seeing as she’s now clashed with a number of filmmakers and could be at least partially blamed for Solo: A Star Wars Story’s dismal performance at the box office.

It is tragic. I’m not a method actor, but one of the techniques a method actor will use is to try and use real-life experiences to relate to whatever fictional scenario he’s involved in. The only thing I could think of, given the screenplay that I read, was that I was of the Beatles generation—‘All You Need Is Love’, ‘peace and love’.
I thought at that time, when I was a teenager: ‘By the time we get in power, there will be no more war, there will be no racial discrimination, and pot will be legal.’ So I’m one for three. When you think about it, [my generation is] a failure. The world is unquestionably worse now than it was then.
