According to The Hollywood Reporter, Jack Quaid talked about his plans for a live-action Star Wars and as well as Star Trek project. This is not his first time, previously also he played in some major franchises and now with his desire to play in Star Wars, he also says “I’d kill to be a droid or a Jedi or a Han Solo type:”
“I don’t know if anyone’s ever been in both — and I’ll probably be very much corrected by nerds — in both a Star Trek live-action project and a Star Wars live-action project, but I would like to be one of the first. The reason why I’m into sci-fi and fantasy comes from Star Wars. I would kill to be a droid or a Jedi or a Han Solo type, whatever. I could be a blade of grass in a field, I don’t care. I’d love to be in a Star Wars project, for sure. I never thought I’d be on Star Trek show — period. That was a dream come true. So I don’t know. Maybe that could happen.”
