The Force Awakens has indeed been revealed as the title for Star Wars Episode VII, as has the fact that filming has been completed, and also there’s the logo!
Ever-present Andy Serkis will be one of the newbies, alongside John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Domhnall Gleeson, Lupita Nyong’o and the awesome Max von Sydow. They will all be alongside Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and Kenny Baker.
A cast photo was released in April.
J.J. Abrams will direct, but once again he’s been proved to be a cheap-ass, since while it’ll appear in 3D in the cinema, just like Star Trek Into Darkness, he’s filming it in 2D, and then doing a post-conversion into 3D. If you’re going to make it 3D, do so from the start!
The film will be written Lawrence Kasdan and J.J. Abrams, produced by Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams and Bryan Burk, and the composer, as ever, is John Williams.
Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens will be released at cinemas on December 18th, 2015, and check out the full logo below.
