Star Wars fans are still reeling from the return of Star Wars to the big-screen in the form of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but cast members are already talking about the next saga film.
Episode VIII begins production in January, but certain cast members have already read the script. Daisy Ridley (who starred as Rey in The Force Awakens) had the following to say on whether she had read the script:
“I have. It’s very good; very good. Let’s see “VII” first and then we’ll talk about “VIII.” [Laughs.] “It will be interesting to go back to “VIII” after everyone’s seen the film. I’m glad that people are going see the film before we start shooting because I think that will be a kind of… not a marker, but some kind of directional thing. I think it’ll be a very different experience.”
Star Wars Episode VIII is scheduled for release on May 26th, 2017.
