As her journey through Jurassic World comes to an end, her journey through the Star Wars galaxy is only just beginning. A fan favourite already for her work on The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett, many hope to see Bryce Dallas Howard direct a Star Wars big screen adventure, which is clearly something her Jurassic director Colin Trevorrow wants, as well as Mandoverse supremo Jon Favreau…to say nothing of countless Star Wars fans around the world.

You’ve directed short films and television. Is directing a narrative feature something that is a priority to you in the near future?

It’s really, really, really important to me because there’s more to learn. I’m attached to “Flight of the Navigator,” but there’s not a script yet.

There’s also what many people on the internet want, which is for you to direct a “Star Wars” movie…

I honestly have no idea! The support is incredibly moving. I was on a work session with Jon Favreau when this was announced — I’m like, “Oh, I could say yes, I did another episode!” I’ll get choked up, he’s just the most wonderful man. He was like, “Bryce, we were at Celebration and people were so supportive.” He got choked up talking about how people were so embracing of me. Papa Jon! I feel so lucky the way folks have been, because I love getting to do this.
