June 19th, 2014 - Watch the video for updates on new casting members and Harrison Ford's ankle injury.
On April 29th, 2014, a cast photo was released to the public for the in-production film of the eagerly anticipated "Star Wars: Episode VII," due for theatrical release in December 2015. It is no surprise that actors Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher were officially confirmed to return as Han Solo, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia, respectively. This is big news in the Star Wars universe because the original trio have not played these roles since 1983's "Return of the Jedi." Peter Mayhew is of course returning as Chewbacca (confirmed a couple of weeks ago), not to mention Kenny Baker as R2-D2, Anthony Daniels as C3PO, and new cast members who include Adam Driver (HBO's "Girls"), Oscar Issac ("Inside Llewyn Davis," "Drive"), Domnhall Gleason (who appeared in the last two "Harry Potter" flicks), Daisy Ridley (a new fresh face from Britain), and John Boyega ("Attack the Block"). There is also Max Von Sydow, a major surprise, and I bet he will be playing some sort of older Jedi, perhaps carrying on the tradition of Christopher Lee and Alec Guinness, or maybe an archvillain. It is all up in the air at this point. I neglected to mention Andy Serkis of "Lord of the Rings" fame is also cast, although as what is unconfirmed. In fact, aside from Solo, Leia and Luke, there is no information on the characters these other actors will be playing.My hope for this movie is that Leia will be "the other." She's got to use a lightsaber at some point. No word yet on Billy Dee Williams returning as Lando Calrissian, or any other cast members (I am sure there is more that will still be revealed). More updates are forthcoming and will be mentioned and added to this page. Stay tuned, and consider my interest renewed in this series.
