Star Wars to be Edited in L.A.?
This week, Benedict Cumberbatch denied rumors of his casting in Star Wars, but stated he did actually want to be in it. Acccording to him, "Everyone who wants to be a part of that film, they (Disney) know." In other news. Peter Mayhew, who played Chewbacca in four Star Wars movies, might not be able to play him in the next installment, due to both of his kneecaps being replaced. Barely getting out of bed, it seems unlikely that he'll reprise his iconic role.
The first rumored title of Episode VII is "A New Dawn", first reported by TalkBacker, that a "potential title" has been leaked via two anonymous sources. This sounds pretty sketchy, so I'll take this one with a grain of salt. Also, According to Latino Review, the Millenium Falcon will be returning, coming from yet another anonymous source. The report states, "All of post-production a re-shoots are to work around Abrams and Actors schedules. 90% of shooting in London. Also, they are building the Millenium Falcon on at Pinewood. Interior is done." Once again, grain of salt. But this next report could actually have merit. And it involves J.J. Abrams.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bad Robot is developing a green room and sound studios in Sana Monica. This particular building already has editing studios, a screening room, which can double as a movie set, and various office spaces. It might mean that the studio is just moving the editing to L.A., but it could also mean pick ups could be shot there.This news comes after J.J. Abrams told interviewers earlier this year that his wife, kids, and himself were unhappy that production of Episode VII would be moved to Pinewood Studios in London, where all six Star Wars movies have shot at. He has shot all of his movies in Los Angeles, even personally financing part of Star Trek Into Darkness in order to keep it local. Could this new development in Bad Robot's facilities have anything to do with this? I'll let you decide.
But the answer is yes.
