Lucasfilm
just announced the cast of the new Star Wars films and all I have to say is
this: excellent job. We have the originals which we knew were coming back.
That’s a no-brainer. Then we have Adam Driver, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Andy
Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Daisy Ridley and the legendary Max von Sydow. What do
I love about this cast? With the exception of Sydow, all of these people are
relatively unknown. Yes, Andy Serkis is pretty famous but all of his work is in
Motion Capture so no one will really recognize him. These kind of choices prove
that J.J. Abrams and company have a clear vision to take this film back to a
philopohsy that built the first trilogy. I do hope they add some more women to
this cast, since I know there’s probably still some casting to be made, but
this is a great start.
