Star Wars updates.. and some trailers

Well there are a few Star Wars Episode VII bits floating around at the moment. First up is that Harrison Ford is now out of hospital following his foot injury on set. He has a broken foot and now needs a prosthetic frame. There are two flavours of rumour. First up is that there is a call to try and delay the filming to allow him time to recover. The second one is that they'll use Ford's stunt double and some CGI trickery to bring it all together. Time will tell on that one!

It has now been confirmed that Andy Serkis (who played CGI Gollum, Cesar and King Kong) is doing some performance capture work for Episode VII as a consultant with his firm Imaginarium and will also have a role in the film. What that may be he is not at liberty to say.

The final interesting thing is that there is a rumour doing that rounds that Billie Lourd (Carrie Fisher's daughter) is lined up to play Princess Leis in flashback scenes. Given that this rumour is doing the rounds in the tabloid press it's probably cobblers but you never know!  

In other Star Wars news a French trailer has appeared online for Star Wars Rebels which reveals that Obi-Wan Kenobi is being included!


Dr. Who is set to return to our TV screens on Saturday 23rd August and the BBC are currently sending out their teasers with a picture and a trailer.
