I don't see how it can end up pleasing Star Wars fans. The original actors won't come back, both because they're frankly too old and some don't want to be associated with the franchise, which is an automatic fail. I guess they could pull a Tron Legacy and CGI their 'younger' faces in, but I doubt they'd even come back for voice work. Bringing in new actors to play Han, Luke, Leia, etc, will be horrible unless they use unknowns. Focusing on an entirely different group of characters that we haven't seen before (possibly from the novels) might work, but ignoring the key characters from the movies just seems odd and I don't see how they can pull it off.
J.J. Abrams directed the latest Star Trek movie, and it was AWESOME. Abrams has stated that he grew up on Star Wars, not Star Trek, and he wanted the new Star Trek to be reminiscent of Star Wars. He understood what made Star Wars good and he did it to Star Trek. George is not going to be directing Episode 7 (he will be a creative consultant). It will be a younger director. A director that grew up with Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewie. Do you see where I'm going with this? The love of Star Wars made Star Trek an awesome thing. Can you imagine what the pure, unadulterated love of Star Wars will do to Star Wars? Mark my words. In the right hands, this movie won't just be good. It'll be great. And Disney is good at putting things in the right people's hands. Joss Whedon and the Avengers, for example.
I cant remember where i saw it, but one article or something said that hamill, ford and fisher would be interested in coming back. luke could be on dat jedi council
