More news from the Galaxy has just arrived, to an extent. Derek Hoffman has just landed the position of Vice President Of Live-Action Development at Lucasfilm. The announcement came not from Lucasfilm themselves, but from one of his colleagues, Mel Caylo, on an Instagram post. Caylo simply congratulated Hoffman on his new position, while posing with some other friends. Caylo said Hoffman’s position was “well deserved”, but it’ll be up to viewers to decide whether or not that’s accurate in the future. We will certainly be watching Hoffman’s career with great interest, and see just what he will do next.
Derek Hoffman is a graduate of Indiana University. According to Lucasfilm’s website, “Getting his start with The Donners’ Company as a runner, he quickly moved into an assistant role for director Richard Donner and then to associate producer on the feature film Timeline and co-producer on 16 Blocks.” Through this, Hoffman began working on the X-Men film franchise, ultimately serving as an executive producer on the franchise’s television shows Legion and The Gifted. It was these positions that likely earned him his new position at Lucasfilm, where he will likely be working on the Star Wars live-action series.
