There’s A Secret Star Wars Easter Egg In The Creator That Most Fans Missed

A lot of VFX work went into «The Creator,» resulting in a visually stunning work of art. While the film has a lot going for it, the one thing many critics unanimously praised, including Looper’s own Alistair Ryder, is how good it looks with a fraction of the budget of many modern blockbusters. Inserting K-2SO is only a tiny piece of what the team accomplished, and Jay Cooper and Andrew Roberts went on to discuss how one of their favorite things is something that, again, most people probably overlook. 

Cooper pointed out a subtle shot during a scene where Joshua (John David Washington) and Alphie (Madeleine Yuna Voyles) go to the robot temple: «When they’re in the temple… [there is a] shot of the robots carved into the wood… I was like, ‘This is the coolest thing and no one’s gonna see it.’» From a thematic standpoint, robots carved into wood says a lot about the integration of technology into the modern world, and even if most people overlook this detail, it adds to the overall world-building.

It sounds as though, if no one catches K-2SO in «The Creator,» Cooper will point it out eventually. Until that time comes, fans can wait to see K-2SO in all his glory when he appears on screen again in «Andor» Season 2.
