As reported by SlashFilm, when asked directly about his potential involvement, Isaacs responded with a playful but enigmatic answer.

“I can’t even acknowledge the existence of Lucasfilm as a real entity. I’ve signed so many NDAs. Even having this conversation with you now I have to come round and cut your tongue out while you’re sleeping. I apologize.”

Jason Isaacs made a playful statement, confusing the person questioning him. In a world where Star Wars is well-known for its secrecy, it’s not surprising that Isaacs was cautious in his response.

Jason Isaacs’ reluctance to provide more information only adds to the mystery of whether he has any connection to the Star Wars universe.

Although Jason Isaacs has significantly impacted the DC Comics universe, there is speculation about whether he may be considering transitioning into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Isaacs confessed to not having any specific plans and taking opportunities as they arise. However, the conversation with SlashFilm indicates his lifelong love for superheroes indicates a genuine interest in the genre.

“I absolutely love that world, and I love watching the films as well. I’m thrilled that there is room for films, the opposite kind of films, small, powerful, emotional adult dramas to be made as well, because it would be a shame for the world if there were only giant special effects, superhero movies, but I absolutely lap them up. I adore them. And I think Marvel, particularly with Kevin Feige at the helm, have done a fantastic job of making them continually entertaining and relevant and watchable.”
