JJ Abrams really wishes he was directing the next ‘Star Wars’ sequel
Those looking forward to playing characters and settings from The Force Awakens and Star Wars: Episode VIII will have to wait until the next Battlefront game.

Given the record breaking success and acclaim for The Force Awakens, Disney may well wish Abrams was still writing and directing the rest of the trilogy, if only because he is a proven commodity and then some. The previous record belongs to Universal’s “Jurassic World”, which made $106.6 million in its second weekend of release in June.
It also reached $300 million by mid-Tuesday, and could even break the record take for that day set by the actual opening of The Amazing Spider-Man, which pulled in $35 million in 2012. In Chennai however, perhaps because of a delayed release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the hype surrounding this cult franchise is low, so much so that some fans like 20-something TT Sriram bashfully admit, “I nearly forgot the movie is releasing on Friday!”
But my favorite aspect of the new Star Wars universe is that it’s amusing again. Together, the young duo joins forces with Han Solo Played Harrison Ford (Star Wars) to make sure the Resistance receives the intelligence concerning the whereabouts of Luke Skywalker, the last of the Jedi Knights. This seems odd, since more people will see the movie than read the novelization, but at the same time it gives you ample reason to crack open the book to get the complete story. I was thrilled to be there, as I went to the first Star Wars in 1977 with my father when I was 4 years old, and this installment brought the magic back immediately.
“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” is now playing in theatres, and Episode VIII is slated for May 26, 2017.
“I actually didn’t want confirmation nor definitive proof this early”, he tweeted.
