If all actors had an equal opportunity to be cast in the upcoming Star Wars trilogy by Disney and JJ Abrams, who would you want to see? The point is - NOT - who is the prettiest Hollywood celebrity of today, but rather, who really fits the part? As we all know, Star Wars will draw a crowd at the box office all on its own... so why not cast actors who could really portray the genealogy of the characters?

Calling all Actors... who should be cast in Disney's Star Wars episode VII?
With casting negotiations for Star Wars VII currently under way, isn't it time to start helping both JJ Abrams & Disney locate the best possible talent pool to portray the upcoming trilogy's undisclosed character roster? Yes, we can assume that the roster will include some of the original cast (Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford & Carrie Fisher), as has already been leaked (intentionally or unintentionally) to the media, but what about other obvious possibilities we have not seen yet, like the child/children of Princess Leia & Han Solo or the son of Luke Skywalker (Ben Skywalker)?
This is an open forum, so please keep your thoughts and comments clean and purely focused on discussing the true portrayal of what you envision the upcoming trilogy's cast to look like. Please post links to professional photos that could be used by talent agencies & casting companies. The ultimate goal is to find actors who could fit the correct age & genealogical match-up to portray a future cast that could make this project truly epic... and "not" just another movie showcasing Hollywood's - who is popular now.
May the force be with you.
Disney has posted the casting address for Actor's Photos & Resume submissions for Star Wars VII.
