Star Wars Returns to United Kingdom


As per the Walt Disney Co. it was released that production on Star Wars: Episide VII will begin production in the United Kingdom and be released in 2015. All previous movies have been shot in the U.K., most notably to fans, at Pinewood Studios.

As per Disney's blog:
Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy expressed her excitement for the news sharing, "We've devoted serious time and attention to revisiting the origins of Star Wars as inspiration for our process on the new movie, and I'm thrilled that returning to the UK for production and utilizing the incredible talent there can be a part of that. Speaking from my own longstanding connection to the UK with films like Raiders of the Lost Ark, Empire of the Sun and recently War Horse, it's very exciting to be heading back."

I can't wait to see what story Disney will tell with the newest franchise takeover. Only time will tell! And in the meantime, may the force be with you!
