Star Wars 7 cast official

[Bruce Banner]

Interesting cast.
Particularly excited about Max Von Sydow. He's great in whatever he's in, be it The Seventh Seal, Flash Gordon, Dune, Conan the Barbarian, Judge Dredd, Solomon Kane, etc, etc.

Since the last adventure, did Leia become a Jedi?

Did the rebels succeed or Did the Empire stamp them out?

Did or will Luke succumb to the Darkside?

Are there more Jedi now?

Did Han and Leia marry and if so did they stay together?

[Werewolf]

Which of the big three will die in Episode VII? My money's on Han.

I personally don't think any will. A sure fire way to tick off fans of the classic trilogy would to be kill a beloved character in the first film of the new trilogy. I don't think Disney would allow it.

With the rumors flying that Ford's role will be enormous, there have been comments that his seating proximity next to JJ suggest he will have a sizable role. Perhaps they're overanalyzing the seating arrangement, but I do hope Mark Hamill isn't squandered for this film. He is an underrated talent, and, well, he's like the HERO of the Original Trilogy.

I like the cast, but there's a lot of oldsters listed and that might make for a lot of screen time of them sitting on a couch time with grandpa telling the kids about the time he blew the Death Star up.

Even George Lucas didn't make that type stupid mistake in "Grandpa Indy" IJ4, and he' s totally stupid for so many OTHER reasons (probably for releasing IJ4 to begin with).
Abrams? NO WAY.
Grandpa will at least have less screen time OR grandpa be the one that is blowing up a new Death Star HIMSELF--- but whether grandpa SHOULD be doing that is another can of worms point.

It'll be interesting to see what kind of character Andy Serkis plays.

[Bionicfanboy66]

It is weird not to see the notorious GL in that photo.

[acrovader]

I've read other people say the same thing- and if it were true (which I seriously doubt), I think it would be ludicrous.

[Hedji]

Isn't it strange (and a little sad) not to see George Lucas in such an historic photo?

[Werewolf]

unless he's taking over for Alec G.

That would not surprise me and that's actually the first thing that came to my mind when I read the casting.

[Klosterheim]

Max Von Sydow is great news. I was thinking he is a veteran Rebel or maybe a Jedi Force ghost, unless he's taking over for Alec G.

Andy Serkis will be useful and cool.

That one actress kinda looks like Padme, so maybe Han and Leia's daughter?

I wonder if Chewy will be living on the same planet as Han, or are they still having space adventures.

Episode VII will be incredible either way.

So what if this is a Blue Harvest type of deal,

I really can't see Disney doing that.

[drquest]

So what if this is a Blue Harvest type of deal, where we think we're getting a movie with the cast of the original trilogy but really we're getting a retooled movie instead?

I like the cast, but there's a lot of oldsters listed and that might make for a lot of screen time of them sitting on a couch time with grandpa telling the kids about the time he blew the Death Star up.
