Matthew Vaughn actually dropped out of the X-Men sequel to direct Secret Service not Star Wars.

You should see The Big Red One, pretty good WWII flick with Hamill. In truth Star Wars ruined his career because he was eternally Luke Skywalker after. Ford was at least a semi-star before it and was smart enough to take every role that came his way directly after to avoid the typecasting. (And getting offered the Indy role also helped him survive Star Wars)

LucasFilm confirmed today that Michael Arndt will be writing the next Star Wars movie. In a brief post on Starwars.com, the company said that Arndt, who wrote the screenplay for Hunger Games: Catching Fire and won an Oscar for writing Little Miss Sunshine, will be the only screenwriter on the first Star Wars movie since 2005′s Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith. Previously it looked like Arndt would be one of a number of writers on Star Wars Episode VII.

Quote:

Michael Arndt has written a treatment for not just one but the next three Star Wars films coming from Disney, Deadline has learned. The Oscar-winning Little Miss Sunshine screenwriter, who also penned Toy Story 3 and the upcoming The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, is also in line to work on the script for Star Wars Episode VII next year.

It's now official: Star Wars Episode VII has a writer!

Quote:

As pre-production of Star Wars: Episode VII begins, Lucasfilm has confirmed that award-winning writer Michael Arndt will write the screenplay for the new Star Wars film. As revealed in the ongoing video series posted here on StarWars.com, Kathleen Kennedy and George Lucas have begun story conferences with Arndt. Arndt won an Academy Award® for Best Original Screenplay for writing Little Miss Sunshine (2006), and was nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay for writing Toy Story 3 (2010).

It's a somewhat odd, but (I think) solid choice.

Scary 'Star Wars' rumor: Disney to resurrect Darth Vader?

November 15, 2012 | Amanda Kooser
Darth Vader's death may be negotiable now that Disney is in charge of new "Star Wars" films. A sketchy rumor hints at a possible return of the famous Sith.

Maybe Darth Vader will be reincarnated.

Neatoshop

Ever since Disney bought Lucasfilm, the rumors surrounding a new "Star Wars" film have been flying around like a whole herd of speeder bikes through the forest of Endor. One of the latest is that Disney is looking to bring Darth Vader back from the very final-looking death he had in "Return of the Jedi."

As far as rumors go, it's harder to get more unsubstantiated than this one. The source is from British tabloid site Express.co.uk. The article quotes "industry insiders" as saying Disney plans to have Darth Vader return to play a significant role in a new trilogy.

It's easy to see the appeal of bringing Darth Vader back. He's the ultimate bad guy of the series and one of the most iconic science fiction villains ever created. For some fans, though, the mere thought of resurrecting him just to sell more movie tickets is sacrilege.

If Disney does try to pull this off, it will have to be very careful about how it's handled. Should this rumor become reality, it will be up to "Little Miss Sunshine" screenwriter Michael Arndt to make it work.

What do you think? Should Disney resurrect Darth Vader or leave him to the fate he already suffered? If he is brought back, what would you consider to be an acceptable method for resurrection?

I hope they do so people can throw a hissy fit.
