And could we be learning the actual names soon?
The Star Wars: Episode VII casting rumour Star Destroyer keeps on rumbling through that galaxy far, far away, with J.J. Abrams, Lucasfilm and Disney showing no sign of wanting to make announcements just yet. But with Star Wars Day (AKA May the fourth) just a few short days away, anticipation is building for actual news. Deadline is getting a jump on any potential confirmation by throwing Inside Llewyn Davis' Oscar Isaac’s name into the contender pool.
Yet Abrams’ hand may be forced even earlier by word that there is a big table read planned in London this week, which would see all the cast gathered and make keeping things a secret that much more difficult. Deadline is hearing that Isaac is being lined up for a major role, with the already-rumoured Adam Driver and John Boyega, with a potential new recruit in the shape of Maisie Richardson-Sellers.
And of course, there are the original trilogy cast members Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher, who have been linked with the new film for ages and are all in London. And word is that Ford has a much bigger role in the movie that originally thought. Of course, all this is still subject to the Star Wars Rumour Alert klaxon for now, but we may have to retire the ol’ noisemaker soon enough. Abrams is at work on the film, based on a script originated by Michael Arndt and re-written by the director and Lawrence Kasdan. Episode VII docks with our cinemas on December 18, 2015.
