The star, however clarified his leaky comment in his interview with Variety, Driver said he didn't mean everything he said literally. He also said that the way people interpreted the comparison wasn't entirely accurate, Vanity Fair reported.
"No, no, and that's not even what I said. What I said was the tone of it was different, I didn't say that it was gonna be in the vein of [it]-I was using it as an example, so poor example. Next time I should say-I'm trying to think of another sequel to a movie that's good. When I read the script, it was not what I expected, in the best of ways." Driver said.
The actor however is known from his blunt comments, who speaks what he feels to speak.
Director Rian Johnson who will be the director of Star Wars: Episode 8 also clarified Drivers comment.
"It's similar to how The Empire Strikes Back has a different tone. For that people always go 'oooh, it's dark' but I don't know that it necessarily is. It's just different in tone in a way that I think is great and necessary but also very clear."
Driver clarifies about his made comment that it was just a matter of his tone that made it different. Which made people to assume that the Star Wars next episode will be all dark. Star Wars: Episode 8 will be directed by Rian Johnson following differently to J.J Abrams who directed the previous episode. Episode 9, however, on its coming will be different again as it will be directed by Colin Trevorrow, Jurassic World director.
