Star Wars Episode VII pictures "leaked" and new cast members added

Whether it was truly "leaks" or just some elaborate part of the Disney/Lucasfilm PR machine I care not. The first pictures have now made it into the wild of the filming of Star Wars Episode VII. There might not be much to look at but my excitement is now mounting.It's great to see the reappearance of the Millennium Falcon and an X-Wing in among the images.

Entertainment website TMZ.com was the first to break with the news:

Here was the next batch to hit the internet, I found these via Nerdist.com

It was also announced today that two more actresses have been added to the Episode VII cast. First up is 12 Years A Slave  star Lupita Nyong'o. Next up is Game Of Thrones legend Gwendoline Christie. They join an already exciting looking cast list comprising of John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Max von Sydow, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, and Kenny Baker.

Now please excuse me while I go and have a quiet moment of reflection on the potential greatness that is to come (you see I have faith that Disney will not mess this up).
