The article from Nerdist reports that Ryan Reynolds revealed he pitched an R-rated Star Wars project to Disney, but the studio was not interested and passed on the idea.

Reynolds shared this information during an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. While he didn't provide specifics about his actual pitch, he humorously suggested it could have been something like a gritty Jawa story or a Wookiee sitcom.

The article notes that an R-rated Star Wars project from Reynolds makes sense given his success with R-rated films like Deadpool. However, Disney has typically kept Star Wars content more family-friendly, making their decision to decline unsurprising.
