A Friday 5...Far, Far Away

After the open auditions in November the cast of the latest Star Wars film is still a mystery, even though it is due to start filming soon. Hints have been dropped abut "familiar faces" but that could just mean the film is going to be overrun with ewoks and storm troopers. Yeah they're tricky those casting directors. Lena Dunham recently let slip that Girls cast member Adam Driver was in the running as a villain of the new Star Wars but we have put our heads together and decided on the cast we'd like to see in the new Star Wars film. 

1. I don't need to think who to cast. The only Star Wars cast members I care about have already been cast. The new movie is (almost certainly) going to feature Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamil playing older versions of their characters from the proper movies. I'm almost excited about it. Almost. It's got the cast I want to see and Lucas isn't involved at all. JJ Abraham's Star Trek films may have sucked but he's perfect for the far more simplistic, space battle filled Star Wars universe than the more cerebral Star Trek franchise which he's managed to run into the ground. I just can't quite work up the enthusiasm I used to have for a star Wars movie after the prequels. That said I know I'll still be there for the midnight showing on opening day. Gareth

2. Rumour has it that R2-D2 will feature in the new Star Wars. And you can’t have R2-D2 without C-3PO. That would just be all kinds of wrong. Which ought to mean a starring role for Jim Parsons.Yeah ok it won’t help him to break out of the type-casting that threatens to constrain the rest of his career, but on the plus side he’d be able to basically retire and  live off Con appearances and cameos.

3. I didn't know anything about Star Wars until it was re-released in 1997 with various changes that I didn't notice made. I hadn't even realised the Ewoks cartoon was any kind of spin off from Star Wars. In fact my sister and I were probably the only people who, knowing so little about the trilogy, needed a spoiler alert when our dad mentioned the paternity TWIST. So quite frankly as long as Jar Jar Binks isn't in it I don't particularly mind as I'm not very attached to the films. But I will be seeing it. Actually put Amy Poehler in it, I love her. Squeamish Kate

4. The question "Which celebrities, dead or alive, would you like seated at your dinner party table?" can easily be applied to the next installment of Star Wars. CGI has come on a long way and I know George Lucas loves to tamper with the past so why not reanimate the dead for Episode VII?! I'd like to see, along with the timeless and very much alive ensamble of Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill,  comedian John Candy! He never failed to deliver a laugh during my childhood so can we take a few shots of him from Uncle Buck, Home Alone and Cool Runnings and slide them into a galaxy far far away to stop me crying with disappointment throughout the whole thing. Oh, and of course I want Ewoks too. Squeamish Nicola

5. I have no relationship with any of the Star Wars movies, so I would cancel the film series and use the money to bring back Star Trek: The Next Generation. It's vastly superior. F1Kate
