Disney purchases Lucasfilm - Star Wars Episode VII to be released in 2015 I might be in the minority, but I don't want the original Star Wars actors in the films. I am kind of hoping they don't just jump to like 30 years after Return of the Jedi, and have old versions passing stuff down. I kind of hope they spent their time writing a good script, re-cast, and follow some of the book narratives and continue on soon after Return of the Jedi. It sucks to do, and maybe the actors can have a cameo, but I don't want an Indiana Jones IV, I want a real flick and not one that is meant to pass the series along to a new generation. I think Luke can make sense in an old mentor role like Obi-Wan from the OT. Ford is looking too old to play Solo anymore, best left as a passing mention. Fischer looks terrible, and I can't see Leia having an important role, nothing that would make sense for more than 10 minutes of screen time.

Some fresh faces would be nice. I'd like to see new faces as well. Not entirely new, that would be almost impossible, but no more over used actors
