Harrison Ford isn't ready -- "yet" -- to talk about his reported part in Disney's planned "Star Wars" sequel, but he praises its director, J.J. Abrams.
A newly announced "Star Wars" sequel was on everyone's mind when J.J. Abrams took the stage Wednesday at a Las Vegas video game conference, but he made only a sideways mention of the film he has been hired to direct.
Walt Disney Co. CEO Bob Iger said Tuesday that screenwriters Larry Kasdan and Simon Kinberg are working on stand-alone "Star Wars" movies that aren't part of the new trilogy that's in the works.
Lucasfilm is postponing the scheduled 3-D releases of 'Star Wars: Episode II -- Attack Of The Clones' and 'Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith' this fall to instead focus its efforts on 'Star Wars: Episode VII.'
The Walt Disney Co. issued a statement Friday night confirming reports that had been circulating for two days that J.J. Abrams has been pegged to direct the seventh installment of the "Star Wars" franchise.
According to multiple trade reports, JJ Abrams is set to direct the next installment of "Star Wars," which Disney has said will be "Episode 7" and due out in 2015.
