He already said "no thanks, I like having control and making my own movies, lol"

If he ends up with a Star War he's gonna look like a sellout at best and a lying shithead at worst.

Not really. Nobody even before talks can come out and say they’re doing these films. They’d make their own lives unbearable and everything they say under an immediate spotlight.

He already did a Thor movie with Disney. I don't see how that would affect him here. He probably has a good working relationship with them, I hope he is doing the Obi Wan Movie

He also said

"However, Waititi recently told Uproxx that he was just kidding around. "I'm not an idiot. Who would actually say no to Star Wars?" he said."
