Hier eine Erklärung, warum es keinen Star Wars-Bezug im Film gibt.

Zitat:

Spielberg wasn’t willing to go into all the details of how imagery rights from everything from Hello Kitty to “Chucky” to “Battlestar Galactica” were secured, but he does say producer Kristie Macosko Krieger was key in making it happen. He notes, “Kristie spent three years with all the Warner Bros. legal people and we couldn’t get all of them. We couldn’t get any ‘Star Wars’ rights. It took three years. Weekly phone calls.” Quelle: https://theplaylist.net/...-20180315/
