damn he’s gonna be 70+ when these movies hit….

*just made this*

I cant wait to see Han Solo back in action, shooting first and flirting with an old Leia…Maybe they can airbrush their faces a little for the close ups!!!

Yeah, people get old. And guess what? You will too.

yea… need a second source before I spill my drink in excitement

what? Harrison needs a boost…what planet to you live on?

the story should be a bit more honest with their photo of Harrison Ford.

so i guess we’re leaping quite a ways after endor. i’m sure abrams and crew will introduce new and just as compelling characters to the onscreen universe, but i was looking forward to more films mostly featuring han, luke, leia and lando in their prime. the last star trek film (and abrams) proved once again that iconic characters are bigger than the actors that originate them. however, they had their trilogy- moving on then. chewie, take jj in the back and plug him into the hyperdrive!

He will be 10 years older than Sir Alec Guiness was when he did Star Wars Episode IV

I’m deducting points for not going with OLD SOLO YELLS AT CLOUD CITY.

Don’t confuse profitable business models with racism. Its all business. And BTW CNN in Espanol is boring.

EXCLUSIVE!!! Jabba will be played by the host Victor Garcia

SO true. So true.

ANd?

Fox News in any language is dumb.

Well, thats your cents. My cents is going towards the notion that Im glad to see FORD willing to revisit some of his iconic roles. His age doesnt bother me.

barnaby jones in space…

excatly! this is also a smart move on Disneys part to bring back such an iconic figure. can you say safety net? lol

jesus christ. what the hell is victor garcia????

To be honest, for a man his age, his is still in great shape.

You really think it’s original? Gee Whizz

you talking about your nick?

Awesome! Can we expect an announcement regarding Hamil, Fisher, Daniels, Baker and Mayhew soon? Fingers crossed.

In regards to DKR it RUINED the plot!

Way to go for the low hanging fruit. Classy.

I have nothing but admiration for Harrison Ford in the role.

However, I was kinda hoping they wouldn’t flash forward too far past Return of the Jedi. I just think you could have a more compelling story in the immediate aftermath of Jedi: seeing Han and Leia’s relationship develop further, Luke reestablishing the Jedi order, and perhaps a continuation of the struggle between the restored Republic and the remnants of the Empire.
Of course, that would require new actors as the original actors are a little long in the tooth; On the other hand, I’m sure a lot of people would like to see Ford, Hamill, and Fischer reprise their roles.
I guess I am fence sitting right now, with some slight reservations.
But with Abrams on board and, as I understand it, Lawrence Kasdan scripting-this film could be mind blowing.

exact same formula as original trilogy but different enough not to be father vs son, but sibling vs sibling. And many have been speculating that the original trilogy formula is the winning formula and all disney wants to do is win.

Even though you keep the same basic family drama and good vs evil, it will be “different” enough with the republic and empire etc changes in the background and some skywalker kids etc. Im banking that the skywalker kids are either gonna gang up against the other side or their gonna have a 2 vs 2 thing. 1 good solo&skywalker team vs evil solo&skywalker team or something like that

Wig please, and CG smoothing.

You must have read the books huh?

As per usual for FOX news it’s wrong again!

According to Mark Hamill (who would know…) none of the principals have signed on yet, they ARE in TALKS but nothing has been signed yet. Regardless of what is said in the video.

Remember how great it was when Harrison Ford came back as Indiana Jones?! Eh? Eh?

This trilogy better be about the Yuuzhan Vong war cause it’s 20yrs after the battle of yavin and george lucas said each trilogy is 20yrs apart. This is literally the greatest star wars story of all freaking time! We see the death of chewie :(, the birth of lukes son, the destruction of couroscant, 1/3 of the galaxy is killed. Yuuzhan vong are out side of the freaking force so jedi can’t do jack against them! That is until Jacen solo learns some truths from the long lost jedi vergere as she tortures him in the embrace of pain! Or Anakin solo combines a yuuzhan vong lambent crystal with his lightsaber enabling him to feel them as well. This story arc is soooooo F-n amazing if it gets screwed up in any way i will be extremely pissed no two ways about it lol

man, superficial people suck. so at the definite probability of sucking … STOP EATING, DUDE. that’s got to be the largest man on camera in the world.

As long as this doesn’t become Indiana Jones IV.

Shit head spoiling the story.

Latino news, legendary source of spectacularly bad reporting and consistently patronising readers.. “cool kids” really?! Someone please de-testicle this man! I’d say labotomise but it appears that’s already happened.

No. It isn’t abt that bit of EU, and supposedly will be 30 yrs after Endor, not 20.

Lucas had these stories all roughed out in the very early 80′s. He handed those treatments to Disney and they are writing scripts based off of them.

Whether or not the big D accommodates the EU or not remains to be seen.

Kasdan isn’t writing this one; it’s Michael Arndt. That’s not a bad thing, apparently, as he wrote Toy Story 3, and regularly gives lectures on why the original SW worked (and, I suspect, on why the prequels didn’t). He is a FAN with actual writing skills. Bodes well.

Your post almost made me want a Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy movie, but then they’d have to have Will Smith’s son Jaden in it, as that was the name of the character from that game.

iKNOWWWWW
!!!!!

well… they might just do the whole thing animated.. ?? i mean idk but that could work they could bring back all original characters and use 3d…
