    Jesus it's brilliant to start to see a bit of movement on this. At times I forget that this is actually happening and while the phantom menace cut me in such a way that I'd never look forward to a SW with such childish enthusiasm again I still can't help it to get a little excited reading through that article.

    As a side note I'm delighted to see an Irish actor there in Domhnall Gleeson. I've like him in anything I've seen him in and he comes across as a really funny nice chap. This could make him a star.

    I noticed that omission too, he's probably too busy dancing with the stars at the minute.
    The main cast was announced, but not all of the cast.....Hoping for a cameo at least, fingers crossed.

    No Temuera Morrison either - actor that played Jango / clones. Would love to see Boba in it.

    Also very curious to Andy Serkis' character. Wonder what kinda alien he will be....:D

    He quit the dancing with the stars thingy which is why I was hoping to see him with the main cast. Still hopefully himself Boba and Wedge can be involved.

    As long as Serkis is not another Jar jar I will be happy but I think they learned the lesson with the from ep 1.

    Roll on the release date with Han Luke and Leia involved I have the 9 year old waiting for ROTJ vibe back.

    Billy D Williams wasn't a "main" character so I could see it not being announced till nearer the time if he is involved. Really all anybody wanted to see announced was the main trio. things like Cameos are very quick to film. For example Liam Neeson in the Dark Knight rises IIRC only took a few hours and he was involved in a full scene.

    Will we be seeing a silver Chewbacca? That would be cool.

    I'm investing a lot of faith into this film, I now have to spend the the next two years avoid plot spoils from the movie so I can wait until one Saturday night in May 2016 and with some tasty snacks to hand enjoy the movie at home on BR.

    The biggest shame to me will be the lack of the 20th Century Fox fanfare at the beginning...

    I would have considered him a "main" character.
    Next big announcement is likely to be the names and a bit of info on the characters the rest of the cast will be playing. Teasing us with little nuggets over the next 18 months.

    Sure if you're waiting to watch on BR, just play the fanfare first, then stick in the BR and you're good!
