Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015) Discussion Thread
Interesting turn of events if it's true....
Harrison Ford 'open' to Star Wars Han Solo return
The 70 year old actor is said be "upbeat" about the film and reuniting with the other actors who became household names after the success of the original sci fi blockbuster from 1977.
Mark Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker, and Carrie Fisher who was Princess Leia, are also said to be considering the new film.
The latest Star Wars film, the seventh, will be released in 2015 after Disney bought the rights to the franchise with the $4bn (£2.5 billion) purchase of Lucasfilm.
"Harrison is open to the idea of doing the movie and he's upbeat about it, all three of them are," a highly placed source told Entertainment Weekly.
Ford's swashbuckling character was supposed to have been killed off in the Return of the Jedi, but was spared by director George Lucas.
