Instead, he has absolutely no involvement with any of the new ‘Star Wars’ films, and he had not seen a single frame of ‘The Force Awakens’ until this recent screening. That was the moment I felt they were finally in control with (the release of) that second trailer. There’s still an audience for the original films.
“I can’t say anything about my size”, she said with a laugh, but perhaps added a clue: “You know, posters are not really up to scale”. Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher will continue to play Han Solo and Princess Leia. It is important to take those facts into consideration since they are the first indications that the film will end up breaking the box office records.

What you realize, by the way, in working on these movies is that even things that are canon, that are beloved and absolute to fans, are very much fluid and in flux.
Abrams said “The Force Awakens” can be a lot of things but one thing it isn’t is a “trip down memory lane”.
“Star Wars” dominated local airwaves with advertising, promotional segments, and TV interviews featuring the original cast members, and it’s all coming back – to a theater near you (if you live in the metro, of course).

Even though he had nothing to do with the actual production of the movie, as Star Wars: The Force Awakens draws ever closer, George Lucas has been at the forefront of the minds of many people.
If you’re won over, you’re in the right place. “I’ll reserve my final judgement of Disney’s treatment of “Star Wars” until after Rogue One”.
Swank also is pleased that Disney has been supportive of the fan community, something he credits largely to Kathleen Kennedy, the president of Lucasfilm handpicked by Lucas.
