Phil Tippett Has One More Job: Working on the New Star Wars, Maybe

Rumor has it that Phil Tippett is involved in the new Star Wars. Specifically, rumors started by an unnamed source of MakingStarWars.net. It wouldn’t be entirely strange—though Tippett is working on Jurassic World, he began his career on Star Wars, famously putting his stop motion animation skills to use for the Millennium Falcon’s holographic chess game. But other than the tip from their source, evidence amounts to some casual twitter interactions between Tippett and J.J. Abrams.

Don’t do it, J.J.! We all know how poorly the dinosaurs were supervised in Jurassic Park!
