4. He'll Create Something Else Whilst Directing Star Wars
If there's one thing that J.J. Abrams likes doing more than anybody else in the entire world, it's creating new things. Seriously. Give the man a 10 minute free slot in his schedule and he'll use the time to create a new show - maybe even two. Yes, it's become somewhat of a running joke that Abrams can't stick to a project, and instead wanders off and thinks up things like
Fringe and
Alcatraz, whilst
Lost is left in the hands of a bunch of writers who have no choice but to "make it up" as they go along. So although Abrams is sure to be extremely busy with this whole
Star Wars thing, expect his next show to pop up somewhere in the midst of its production schedule.
