The casting announcements at the end of April have given us hope that we won't have to endure more dodgy scripts and wooden acting from its cast. Here at Whatculture we've already speculated what roles these new actors might play. Not only are we getting episodes VII, VIII and IX, there will be a series of spin off movies too, not to mention a new animated series Star Wars Rebels. Of course, for any Star Wars fan worth his salt, this is old news. Chronicle director Josh Trank is directing one Star Wars movie, rumoured - but not confirmed - to be a Han Solo film that charts his days pre-Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.
