Script completed for Star Wars: Episode VII with Breaking Bad link

According to the Wrap
The next chapter in the Star Wars saga is just about ready to shoot as director J.J. Abrams (also co-writing alongside Lawrence Kasdan) reveals that the screenplay for Star Wars: Episode VII is complete.

We're working really hard and we've got our script and we're in deep prep, Abrams tells The Wrap. Full steam ahead, y'know?

Abrams also responded to a question about the recent rumor that "Breaking Bad" star Jesse Plemons has read for a role. Although Abrams confirms that Plemons has auditioned, he also cautions fans that a lot more is going on behind the scenes than makes it to the headlines, refusing to disclose whether or not Plemons is actually anywhere close to a role.

Scripted by J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan, Star Wars: Episode VII is rumored to focus on a new generation of heroes and could include appearances by Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford in older incarnations of their beloved characters from the original Star Wars trilogy. The film is expected to begin shortly and will hit theaters on December 18, 2015.

Just confirmed casting news Star Wars: Episode VII

Today, Lucasfilm confirmed that Lee Towersey and Oliver Steeples, "Star Wars" fans and members of the R2-D2 Builders Club were actually  hired ...I REPEAT, HIRED, to build droids for the upcoming film...

Here's an interview with the pair;

It all started when Kathleen Kennedy toured the R2-D2 Builders area at Celebration Europe this past summer in Germany, says Steeples. She posed for pictures with us, looked at all the droids we'd built and was very complimentary. I mentioned that the R2-D2 Builders in the UK were available if required, as a semi-joke. When I was contacted to work on the film by [executive producer] Jason McGatlin, it was on her recommendation.

We know the pressures of filming, prepping, and being able to assure reliability throughout the shoot, says Towersey. We have a good knowledge of Artoo, with a large stock of parts for reference and drawings, plus we know what is involved throughout the whole building process, as well as potential problems we need to avoid.
