As such, fans of the movie are also treated to a few elements of the finished product which didn't make it to the big screen.
And that's not all – he's also uploaded the scripts for some of his other movie projects too.

The Brothers Bloom is there, his 2008 sibling con-man comedy, as is the script for the 2012 high-concept sci-fi Looper.
In addition, he's uploaded both the script and the original novella for Brick, his directorial debut released in 2005.
But as he notes, the script for The Last Jedi does not feature.
Johnson – also known for his work on Breaking Bad – both directed and penned the middle movie in the last Star Wars trilogy.

And while it was reviewed more favourably than J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, it remains something of a controversial movie among ardent Star Wars fans.
Johnson has already confirmed that he will be working on a sequel to Knives Out, however, following another case for Daniel Craig's southern detective Benoit Blanc.
Lionsgate, the studio behind the $312 million box office hit (despite its all-star ensemble cast, it cost just $40 million to make), has hinted that it could roll the movies out as a new franchise.
