which Abrams is writing and directing.

I hope Lawrence Kasdan is involved again as he was in TFA.

ETA:

No Kasdan?

Abrams filled the role last fall and has spent most of that time working on the script with Chris Terrio

Who’s Chris Terrio?

Terrio re-wrote David S. Goyer's script for Warner Bros.' Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016),[12] and also wrote the screenplay for the ensemble film Justice League (2017)

I’m not sure what to think about this.

Fwiw--Keri Russell


Wishing we were still pre-#metoo so we'd have a chance at some Keri in Slave Leia bikini action.

I’m gonna enjoy TLJ melt when she turns out to be Mara Jade and/or Rey’s mom.


I can see her being Rey's mom, but not Mara Jade. I can see her being a new character, the daughter of Obi Wan.

She's 42 years old. I'd say that's old enough to be the mom of a teenager.


Sure, but Daisy is 26 not a teenager. I’m imagining this one will have a bit of time jump so Rey will be early to mid 20s.

All irrelevant anyways, just an observation. Keri is a great actress so a welcome addition and we don’t even know she’s any relation to any character we know.

Peter Parker's Aunt May is a 9. I think we're past the mothers looking like mothers era of movie series.

There has been concept art for female villain/Knight of ren. That's where I'd put my money.

You can still salvage IX. Just need to do a significant jump forward in time.

How does adding her make Star Wars great again?

Keri Russell is fine af. Hopefully they don't do the same to her like they did to Laura Dern.

She will have green hair with a ridiculous number of lens flares, it will be all ok.

Compared to Russell, Dern is not even the same species.

She'll be the feminist hero we deserve and this entire board will implode.

Keri Russell is a huge fem, like a lot of the others in the last one. This is not as good a sign as hardleg OP thinks it is.

Lol. I don’t know any of the characters. I haven’t seen a Star Wars movie since, perhaps, the second one, and I don’t remember anything about that one.

She is kick arse in The Americans.


Am I the only one that didn’t know until recently that she has been in a relationship with her Americans costar (actor who plays Philip) since the show came out in 2013?? They actually have a kid together.

I like Dern as an actress but in the looks department, you’re correct

the sequels are already dead after going 0/2 for movies that are original, compelling and well executed.


Each movie thus far has only hit 1/3 of the mark - its over.
