If you’ve been following the news on the next ‘Star Wars’ movie, ‘Episode Seven,’ you may already know that it’s actually shooting right now, and that most of the cast has been finalized.

With shooting already begun in some capacity, the full cast of 'Star Wars: Episode 7' should be announced very soon. In the meantime, the fans have been thrown one very large bone: Peter Mayhew, the man behind the faithful Wookie co-pilot Chewbacca, will be among those returning to the galaxy far, far away.

Although it was recently revealed that 'Star Wars: Episode 7' would begin filming in Morocco this month, Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn has dropped a bit of a surprise on all of us: the film is already shooting. But the even more surprising revelation is that most of the casting is already complete. Say what?

It's been almost a year and a half since 'Star Wars: Episode 7' was announced and over fifteen months since J.J. Abrams became the film's director, but with a December 18, 2015 release date, the film has to begin production shortly if they hope to come out next year. The latest word is the film will commence principle photography in Morocco on May 14.

Remember when kids had to use their imagination. Well, not anymore!

Forget about 3D. IMAX is the thing that movie studios are going to use to get a few more bucks per movie ticket from you. It should come as no surprise that Disney, who has never been afraid of finding new ways to make money, is planning to release the hotly anticipated 'Star Wars: Episode 7' in this massive format. So are you prepared to pay a little extra to journey to a galaxy far, far away on

'Star Wars: Episode 7' hasn't been very forthcoming when it comes to details. We sorta knew what was happening, but then J.J.

But, now we actually have some confirmed story facts for the upcoming sequel. 'Star Wars: Ep

For as uneventful as ABC's celebrity dancing competition, 'Dancing with the Stars,' can be, we simply cannot ignore when original 'Star Wars' actor Billy Dee Williams pays tribute to the iconic movie universe with a cha-cha routine.

Though we're still no closer to knowing who will lead 'Star Wars: Episode 7,' the latest casting rumor suggests that '12 Years a Slave' Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o is up to play one of the villains -- or a descendant of Obi-Wan Kenobi -- in the film.

'Star Wars: Episode 7' has been quietly casting now for what feels like years and still, the only real confirmed role we have is Adam Driver, who will play the film's villain. We know we're going to be introduced to a new era of Jedis, but who is actually going to play the new hero? Let's get ourselves updated and acquainted with the actors at the top of J.J. Abrams' list.

Given all the hype surrounding 'Star Wars Rebels,' several weeks ago brought the welcome news that 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars' would premiere its sixth and final season (dubbed the "Lost Missions" and produced before cancellation) entirely on Netflix. The first two lengthy clips of the new installments has arrived, as Master Yoda recruits Anakin's help for a special mission!

Adam Driver missed out on the role of Lex Luthor in 'Batman vs. Superman' because of a scheduling conflict. What kind of conflict could keep someone from starring in one of the biggest movies of the year? THE biggest movie of the year. Variety is reporting that Driver is in final talks to star as the villain in 'Star Wars: Episode 7.'

We've been obsessively tracking 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars' follow-up 'Star Wars Rebels' that we nearly forgot that the former's season 6 "Lost Missions" will hit Netflix in their entirety this March!

For weeks now we've been meeting the cast of 'Star Wars Rebels,' particularly after the the LEGO sets gave away the basic appearances of our remaining "Ghost" crew, yet here's one we haven't yet seen. Meet Sabine, a Mandalorian explosives expert with a penchant for graffiti and more style than Boba Fett ever dreamed of!

The first teasers for Disney's forthcoming 'Star Wars Rebels' gave us official footage from the new animated series, though it proved somewhat lacking in actual characters. We've met several crew members of "The Ghost," including answers to Han Solo, Obi-Wan, Luke Skywalker and even R2, so get ready to meet the brutish but intelligent Zeb, a new twist on Chewbacca!

'Star Wars: Episode 7' is scheduled to begin filming in May (just about two-and-a-half months from now), so you'd think casting announcements are imminent. So far, we've heard precious little information about who will actually be starring in the new 'Star Wars' films (aside from Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford and others from the original trilogy), but is that about to change? The lates

The most recent Toy Fair showings filled in a few 'Star Wars Rebels' blanks by introducing us to the remaining primary characters, but we've yet to see any real footage of the franchise's animated spiritual successor to 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars.'

We've been excitedly devouring every scrap of news to come out of the forthcoming 'Star Wars' animated series, 'Star Wars Rebels,' but what of all the unreleased material from 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars'?

Prepare to join the 'Star Wars Rebels' with newly-confirmed voice actor Freddie Prinze Jr., giving life to the ponytail-wearing "cowboy" Jedi knight, Kanan!

In addition to an Oscar-nominated career, Gary Oldman has also had an impressive run in movie franchises of late. From 'Harry Potter' to 'The Dark Knight' to 'Planet of the Apes,' Oldman is turning into the new Samuel L. Jackson. The only thing he's missing is a role in the biggest franchise in the world: 'Star Wars'. But, it turns out he might not be missing that for very long.
