Watch this fascinating conversation between Lucasfilm’s chief creative officer Dave Filoni and The Acolyte showrunner and creator Leslye Headland as they discuss the galaxy and specifically the Sith.

(Leslye) Headland recently sat down with Lucasfilm’s chief creative officer Dave Filoni for a directors-on-directors conversation about their fandom and love of filmmaking. From examining the Sith to Anakin Skywalker’s fall from the light, the connection between Ahsoka Tano and Jecki Lon, and the power of the Jedi, Filoni and Headland ruminate on the DNA of what inspired Star Wars creator George Lucas and how the galaxy still inspires them today.

Let’s hope there’s more to come from this conversation, and this creative collaboration, in the future.
