Good news for all those Star Wars fans out there. Disney Studios have finally announced the release date for the brand new movie cunningly titled ‘Episode VII’.
Put this date in your diary, December 18, 2015. Shooting is due to start Spring 2014 at Pinewood studios. There is also a chance that you may even be able to star in the film alongside those old stalwarts Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill (In talks and yet to be confirmed) but more about that later.
The new film will be directed by JJ Abrams who did a great job of rebooting the Star Trek franchise. Abrams has also written the screenplay along with Lawrence Kasdan who was responsible for scripting The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Award winning composer John Williams also returns to provide the film soundtrack.
If you fancy yourself as the next Star Wars hero, there are open auditions taking place throughout the UK in November.
There are two roles up for grabs.
Rachel: Beautiful, smart and athletic. Must be over 16 years old.
Thomas: Handsome, smart and athletic. Must be over 18 years old.
The London auditions will be held between 10am – 2pm on November 23 & 24, 2013. Location will be at the Apiary Studios, 458, Hackney Road, E2 9EG.
