"Disney would like to proudly announce that they have a new director on board for Star Wars Episode VII. After listening to the fans' thoughts and much consideration it was decided that the only man capable of returning Star Wars to prominence is acclaimed motion picture director George Lucas"

Earlier today, Badass Digest reported that "J.J. Abrams is on the verge of dropping out of" his directing role on Star Wars Episode VII. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you feel about Abrams), this rumor is false. We reached out to Lucasfilm for comment, and a company spokesman provided the following statement:

"There is no truth to the rumor. JJ is having a great time working on the script and is looking forward to going into production next year."

For those of you keeping score at home, that's roughly the seven-billionth Episode VII-related rumor to be debunked.

I'm happy to hear he's still onboard. Ben Affleck and Brad Bird for VIII and IX please!

When I read all the rumor-flying about the possibility of JJ leaving SW, my first thought was....so, K. Kennedy finally saw STID huh?

It would really be okay if JJ moved on....really.

So JJ's going to rush it. Nice. That's what the franchise needs to get it back on track is a half-*ss effort.

LOL....Oh boy. No one read Devin's article...did they. What idiots.

JJ isn't going anywhere. Thankfully. If he walks, then **** this movie.

Dammit, I got my hopes up.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015) Discussion Thread

If JJ does walk, I wish Brett Ratner on you fans. Out of spite.

They read what they wanted to read . He never outright said JJ was leaving, he said he has been hearing rumors about it due to JJ's conflict with the location and schedule. Sites took it away stating that he said JJ is dropping out.

Devin posted an update.

UPDATE: I just want to make it clear that I never said Abrams is leaving. I'm just saying that I have heard rumors from MANY sources that he's been considering/threatening it. Other web types have heard the same. We've all been hearing it for MONTHS. There have been a lot of other sites that have been running with this part of the story as if it's in stone, and it isn't even close.

I read his article and didn't even see the edit, and I easily got what he was saying.

That, sir, is because you are inteligent. Even though we have oft opposite views on things, I respect your opinions.



On a side note, wake me up in May 2015.

Screw this guy Celtic, he's mediocre at best and you know that.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015) Discussion Thread

He's perfectly fine. Star Trek is the best Star Wars movie since Empire. The hate for Abrams is insane. His only problem, is he keeps working with ****ty writers. Himself sort of included. Super 8 is two really good movies that shouldn't have mixed together.

But whatever. Star Trek is great. Star Trek 2 is OK. But saved ONLY and I mean ONLY by Abrams direction. The writing was awful. But Abrams knows how to make a scene move. He can make an action scene exciting and interesting. But the writers he works with cannot write for ****.

Michael Arnet can. You give someone who can write, and someone who can direct, you put them together and you have gold.

The only other person who could make a Star Wars film is Brad Bird. But he's busy. So. Abrams all the way.
