Is that just speculation?
Also, what?
No, itâs been confirmed by Disneyâs CEO.
First one (Episode 7) is due in 2015.

They say George Lucas will just be acting as creative consultant. That seems like a first good step.
edit:
Oh. Fuck.
I mean itâs a pretty good universe for this kind of thing. On the other hand I canât see them using any of the promise it has and will not be very good.
Oh holy shit.
Edit: Hereâs to hoping that theyâre decent movies, at the very least.
Just got internet back. Trees are down all over campus. And they just cancelled class for tomorrow, as well.
After EP6 thereâs not much left interesting so I donât hold my breath. We already know what happened with the new trilogy so a third one is just more cash grabbing.
^And where are the âhoooray, no classes for tomorrowâ shouts ? 
Hope you are all doing good over there on the east coast of the U, S and A, looks like hell in the TV news over there. Fortunately we havenât frequent visits from great storms here in Europe.
On a side note: First Parcour Training today, what I feel goes way beyond normal aching muscles, I think I might have a strain. I hope I have none though.
Edit: Considering the Star Wars sequels⌠I donât know yet if I have to laugh or cry tears of joy⌠letâs wait and hope the best
Iâm actually kinda enjoying watching the news slowly settle in. There are a few posts on reddit about it right now, and thereâs basically no consensus at all; itâs pretty much a split between âthis is a great thing for Star Warsâ and âthese movies are going to be worse than those terrible prequelsâ.
The controversy over this is going to be incredible.
Wow⌠George Lucas is as bad as EAâŚ
That analogy doesnât make any sense. EA hasnât been acquired by anyone.
But we all know EA sucks anyway.
Oh god, Call of Duty is influencing films now.
Oh damn, I got ninjaed to this. I posted this in Rage thread:
EA produces unnecessary horrible additions to game series all the time.
EA = George Lucas = Infinity Ward.
I really have no idea what to think of this or say regarding it, but my expectations are not high.
Wow. You guys wonât let them produce at least ONE movie before flaming them to shit?
^ Pretty much.
Whatâs best ? :
Luke, Han and Leia in CGI or whole new cast : Johnny Depp, Robert Downey Jr and Megan Fox.
So, will they go directly after ROTJ? The Ssi-Ruuvi Invasion?
Actually my prediction is that the first Disney created movie is a so-so decent movie. My worry is that they totally âPirates of the Caribbeanâ the franchise into the ground. If a movie can be made to profit, it will be made. That seems to be the Disney model. I donât like that.
