Two aspiring actors have been cast in JJ Abrams' upcoming "Star Wars 7" movie after auditioning through an open casting call, according to the project's website.

American actress Crystal Clarke and British actor Pip Andersen have joined the cast that already includes new faces Adam Driver, John Boyega, and Lupito N'yongo. They will be joining "Star Wars" alums Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, and Carrie Fisher.

The statement reads: "Having hunted high and low for young and undiscovered talent, the filmmakers are delighted to announce that two actors from the open call call have been cast.

Crystal Clarke is an American actress studying in Glasgow, UK, who has both stage and screen acting experience and is soon to be seen in her first feature, The Moon and the Sun (to be released in 2015). British actor Pip Andersen is a skilled practitioner of parkour, a discipline that involves propelling oneself through any given environment with incredible grace and agility. Pip recently demonstrated this remarkable skill in a Spider-Man ad for Sony.

'The Star Wars universe has always been about discovering and nurturing young talent and in casting Episode VII we wanted to remain absolutely faithful to this tradition. We are delighted that so many travelled to see us at the open casting calls and that we have been able to make Crystal and Pip a part of the film,' said producer and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy.

Meanwhile, principal photography continues at Pinewood Studios in London after wrapping on location in Abu Dhabi in May.

In August, the team will take a brief two-week hiatus while adjustments to the current production schedule are made as actor Harrison Ford recovers from a leg injury. Harrison is doing well and is looking forward to returning to the set soon. Shooting remains on track to wrap in the fall..."

There's no word on who Clarke and Andersen will be playing. Clarke's first feature film, "The Moon and the Sun," is scheduled to be released in 2015. Andersen practices parkour and was recently seen in a Spider-Man ad for Sony.

"Star Wars: Episode VII," which takes place 30 years after the events in "Return of the Jedi," is scheduled to be released on December 18, 2015.
