Meh, I find him kind of a bland actor. I'd rather have Aaron Paul.
(Bitch.) |
Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015, D: Abrams, S: The casts of Star Trek, Lost, Felicit
Fuck yes on Aaron Paul.
I wonder if casting this is difficult because of how the prequels tarnished the series. |
Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015, D: Abrams, S: The casts of Star Trek, Lost, Felicit
Agent to actor: You have an audition for the new Star Wars that takes place after the terrible prequels and shitty special editions and is being directed by the guy who ruined Star Trek.

I seriously doubt anyone would say no to being cast in a Star Wars movie, I can't imagine something that would look that good on a resume.

Yeah, Hayden Christiansen is a huge star now because of Star Wars.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015, D: Abrams, S: The casts of Star Trek, Lost, Felicit
I wonder, are they actually going to build sets this time, or will they try to keep the tone of the prequels (& some shots of the OT SE') w an all CGI world

Abrams revived interest in the franchise much like Nolan did with the Batman franchise after those shitty Schumacher movies. You may not like Abrams or Nolan, but they didn't ruin anything.

The new Rebels tv show would be a good place to do the Boba Fett "movie".

Some more rumors.
As production gets closer and closer for the upcoming Star Wars: Episode VII, potential casting and plot details will become even more plentiful than they were last year. Yesterday brought the story that "Breaking Bad" star Jesse Plemmons is potentially in talks for a role in the film and now a new story on The Hollywood Reporter points to even more names, specifically Michael Fassbender, "Girls" star Adam Driver and Hugo Weaving. Nothing is set in stone, just like the countless other casting rumors for the highly anticipated film, but Fassbender and Driver could fit the profile for the "military officer" role revealed a few months ago. The site also points to some new story details for the film, citing Michael Arndt's departure from the film being over a dispute on the film's focus. They note that the original draft of the script would have focused on the offspring of Han Solo, Princess Leia, and Luke Skywalker, with the original cast taking on supporting roles. Now it appears that director J.J. Abrams wants to make Luke, Leia, and Han the focus of the films, giving fans a proper "send off" for the characters before their offspring becoming the focus of future sequels in the franchise. http://www.superherohype.com/news/ar...tails-revealed |
Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015, D: Abrams, S: The casts of Star Trek, Lost, Felicit
It sounds good. Have Ep7 more focus on Luke/Leia/Han and introduce their kids. Then in Ep 8-9, the kids become withe focus and Luke/Leia/Han take lesser roles.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015, D: Abrams, S: The casts of Star Trek, Lost, Felicit
I'm getting a Lethal Weapon vibe from this where the more they show the characters the more we get to see them in fuzzy family type surroundings. Can't wait for Luke to awkwardly babysit Han and Leia's kids in a scene!

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015, D: Abrams, S: The casts of Star Trek, Lost, Felicit
Apparently, Ardnt and Lucas were on the same page with regards to focusing on the new generation characters. The report mentions George "acquiesced" to Abrams and Kennedy's wishes when they decided to have Luke, Han and Leia be the main focus of Episode VII.
On the subject of casting: Weaving and Fassbender are quality actors, but their names don't get me the least bit excited in connection to this movie. It feels like fan casting... especially since THR mentions the role Weaving is up for is an Imperial commander. I can only hope they go with some fresh blood who haven't done projects like this before. I'm now expecting to hear that Nathan Fillion and Ian McKellen have already taken meetings with Abrams. :boring: And another interesting tidbit was mentioned in the THR article: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hea...-who-is-669997 The latest bit to surface this week is that Abrams and Lucasfilm are now searching for a 20-something female actress who is either mixed race or black. The rumor is that Obi-Wan Kenobi had a daughter or granddaughter. |
If Lucas has no creative input, it shouldn't matter what he does or doesn't "acquiesce" to.
