Disney/Lucasfilm

It's official! After months of speculation, Disney and Lucasfilm have announced the cast for "Star Wars: Episode VII."

Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, and Harrison Ford will all reprise their roles as Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo in the film.

Joining them will be newcomer John Boyega, who will appear in FOX's upcoming "24: Live Another Day" miniseries; Oscar Isaac ("Inside Llewyn Davis"); and Adam Driver ("Girls").

Boyega was among the actors rumored for the lead in the sequel. Driver is expected to play the main antagonist. His character has been described to be "in the vein of iconic Darth Vader."

Previously, it was reported Peter Mayhew would return as Chewbacca. Kenny Baker and Anthony Daniels will join him reprising their roles as R2-D2 and C-3PO, respectively.

Daniels let it slip last October he may return for "Episode VII" at New York Comic Con.

Not much is known about the film's plot; however, i t's rumored that Harrison Ford will have quite a large role .

Lucasfilm announced last week the new movies will deter from the expanded "Star Wars" universe. So, all the books, comics, and video games, cartoons, etc. that have been released since “Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi” that explain what happens after the film will have have little to no impact on the sequels and spin-off movies going forward.

"Star Wars: Episode VII" will be released December 18, 2015.

Here's the release:

The Star Wars team is thrilled to announce the cast of Star Wars: Episode VII.

Actors John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, and Max von Sydow will join the original stars of the saga, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, and Kenny Baker in the new film.

Director J.J. Abrams says, "We are so excited to finally share the cast of Star Wars: Episode VII. It is both thrilling and surreal to watch the beloved original cast and these brilliant new performers come together to bring this world to life, once again. We start shooting in a couple of weeks, and everyone is doing their best to make the fans proud."

Star Wars: Episode VII is being directed by J.J. Abrams from a screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan and Abrams. Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Bryan Burk are producing, and John Williams returns as the composer. The movie opens worldwide on December 18, 2015.

Sounds like a very good cast. I can't find much on Daisy Ridley though.

I am excited!

Harrison Ford looks fine but yes, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill will need some gym time and a good makeup team.

I just can't get into this.

The sequels were bad. but I liked a few bits and pieces. A few 'bright' points. Maul, for instance. But I'm not one who goes into "expanded universes". To me, It dimishes the story and 'central" characters. Obviously, there's more going on in these universes, but there comes a point where too much elaboration just ruins the characters. because everything gets hyper-explained, and then there's a story behind everything. And when you read some of these stories...ugh -not everyone is actually THAT interesting in "real life". A character gets two seconds of screentime in the back corner, and they write 300 pages on him. And he saved the galaxy 3 times or whatever...and so many of them interacted with the main characters in "silly" ways...


And then they do things to make me hate even the few 'bright' points... like adding spider legs to Darth Maul (who survived that fall and being cut in half) *sighs*
Know what it is? It drives me crazy that folks know crap like the names of every pokemon and the names of all their forms, yet don't know half of the the 50 states. It USED to bother me that people play games like Angry Birds and whatnot, but people used to be more "busy" doing their jobs, so now, they have free time, and that fills it up.
It's actually a GOOD thing, cause it keeps them relatively quiet.

Sequels muck things up. Don't want to see the end of things. Would rather just have them preserved in that period of time, playing out their epic struggle of good vs evil.
and I KNOW, I can just choose NOT to watch them. but just knowing they are out there bothers me. Like making Greedo shoot first. BAH!!!!!!

So basically, the Timothy Zahn books are going to be completely ignored. That's too bad, because I would have liked to see them made into movies. I'm also not a fan of JJ Abrams. So I'm not expecting much from this new movie. Can you say "Christmas Special"? heh...

I'm totally psyched... and I know that the old crew is totally busted looking now, but maybe that's the point? Maybe they are supposed to look old and grey?

X2, in particular, I think JJ is waayyy overrated, disapprove of what he's done to Star Trek, worried about what's next.

LENS FLARE. And lots of it.

All of that cast looks amazing. I'm just fearful of the atrocities JJ Abrams will throw at the Star Wars universe.

I'm disappointed. I was really hoping for the Thrawn Trilogy on the big screen. Plus, it would have been fun to speculate who they would have cast as Mara Jade (Jennifer Lawrence perhaps?)

Could be worse, they could have had Lucas direct again for two more hours of Jar-Jar Binks-like bullsh**.

Hi, I'm Anakin and I'm super cute! Oh, and I destroyed the Japanese-stereotype's ship entirely by accident thereby negating any of the hype surrounding my supposedly awesome piloting and force skills.

Somehow, I still see Abrams taking that, and just adding lens flare. :P

Given the age of the original cast, Mara would likely be older as well - at least in her 40s.
Patricia Tallman?
Rene Russo?
Deborah Unger?

None of you have anything to do in the real world? Ya'll do realize you're talking fiction here, right, not the end or beginning of civilization?



Now, if Kirstie Alley would be in the movie, that would be another story. ( Notice the sarc sign is above this line )

Well the Thrawn Trilogy takes place about 6 years or so after the original series so if they had done that series it would be assumed that they would recast with younger actors (Like Abrams did with Star Trek).

Agreed. If they were doing a different movie with a different cast, she would be a good pick.

JJ Abrams does use very noticeable lens flare... I always wonder why he keeps doing it. He has to know by now that people don't like it.

But otherwise I think he's a great choice. And I think the cast is strong. I have faith.

Because he thinks it's cool.
He made the Enteprise look like an Apple Store. I wonder how he'll envision the New Republic?

Hopefully they haven't done a complete rebound since the Empire fell. I'd like to see some destruction left. After all, the Empire ruled for an entire generation and caused a lot of destruction. It's faster to destroy than create. I'd like to see the worlds farther away from everything turned into kind of outlaw towns as the Empire fell and all the Stormtroopers decided to take control of their own little sections. The Stormtroopers weren't all clones by then, right? I am pretty sure they took in new ranks by then. It would make sense to me and I think would be cool.

I just want to see a mix of new things being built on top of destruction. I want to see the history from the past 40-50 years.

http://www.webpronews.com/m...rs-ep-7-plot-2014-04

Now that Star Wars aficionados have had their fix with Tuesday’s cast announcement for the much anticipated Star Wars: Episode VII, they are now clamoring for plot details.

Although the J.J. Abrams-directed film is held under tight wraps, they may not have to wait too long for those details. It looks like Mark Hamill may have blurted out some plot details in an interview with ETonline in February 2013.

“I’m assuming, because I haven’t talked to the writers, that these movies would be about our offspring — like my character would be sort of in the Obi-Wan range [as] an influential character. … When I found out [while making the original trilogy] that ultimate good news/bad news joke – the good news is there’s a real attractive, hot girl in the universe; the bad news is she’s your sister – I thought, ‘Well, I’m going to wind up like Sir Alec [Guinness]. I’m going to be a lonely old hermit living out in some kind of desert igloo with a couple of robots.’”

Hamill said he hopes the new film will remain “old school” and maintain some of its original look.

“I said to George [Lucas] that I wanted to go back to the way it was, in the sense that ours was much more carefree and lighthearted and humorous – in my opinion, anyway. … I hope they find the right balance of CGI with practical effects. I love props, I love models, miniatures, matte paintings — I’m sort of old school. I think if you go too far in the direction of CGI it winds up looking like just a giant a video game, and that’s unfortunate. … If they listen to me at all, it’ll be, ‘Lighten up and go retro with the way it looks,’” said Hamill.

True, but it has been 30 years. Look at Europe after WWII and how it had recovered by 1975.

That's not really a spoiler. 30 years after ROTJ he would be the oldest known living Jedi. Unless there are others we don't know about, he was the "last of the Jedi." Seeing him in an old Jedi Master role seems a given.
