Lucasfilm has come out with an official statement saying the director of this year's eagerly anticipated 'Fantastic Four' Josh Trank will not direct the second 'Star Wars' Anthology film.

Lucasfilm VP of Development Kiri hart made a statement saying, "It was a privilege to collaborate with Josh. We are grateful for the energy and love of 'Star Wars' that he brought to the process, and we wish him all the best."

Josh too made an announcement saying, "After a year of having the incredible honor of developing with the wonderful and talented people at Lucasfilm, I`m making a personal decision to move forward on a different path. I`ve put a tremendous amount of thought into this, and I know deep down in my heart that I want to pursue some original creative opportunities. That said, the Star Wars universe has always been one of my biggest influences, and I couldn`t be more excited to witness its future alongside my millions of fellow Star Wars fans. I want to thank my friends Kathleen Kennedy, Kiri Hart, Simon Kinberg, and everyone at Lucasfilm and Disney for the amazing opportunity to have been a part of this. May the Force be with you all."

Meanwhile, Lucasfilm will develop the same Anthology spin-off film without Trank. A new director's name is expected to be announced soon. The as-yet-untitled Anthology film is assumed for a 2018 release following next year's first Anthology spin-off film, 'Star Wars Anthology: Rogue One'.

Meanwhile, check out the explosive second teaser for 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'.
