The year 2015 is when the film will be released, rumors have proposed.

Primary focus on the rumors is on the cast, similar to all the hearsays and speculations were getting on the upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey. Many would like to see Harrison Ford again as Han Solo and Carry Fisher as Princess Leia, posing the question if these Star Wars veterans would be back to reprise their roles.

Warwick Davis has made his stance clear by mentioning his interest in playing the villain role again. But his possible inclusion in the cast lack any solid proof as neither the director nor Disney honchos involved in the production has disclosed anything about the film’s casting.

Rumors suggested, however, that it appears the plot and the characters have somewhat been finalized because JJ Abrams has confirmed that he would not be concentrating on the children of Han Solo and Princes Leia namely, Jacen and Jaina. The Universal Books features these children as the new saviors of the galaxy unlike their parents in the previous versions of Star Wars.

Discussions on the latest episode became prominent with the revelation that Disney would be focusing on D23 Expo in August. Moreover, it has already been announced that the fans of the epic scientific fiction series would get an opportunity to experience the evolution of various characters of the movie and other interesting things related to it. All these indicate the possibility of an announcement about the Star Wars 7 in D23 Expo.
