The Star Wars team is thrilled to announce the cast of Star Wars: Episode VII.

Director J.J. Abrams says, "We are so excited to finally share the cast of Star Wars: Episode VII. It is both thrilling and surreal to watch the beloved original cast and these brilliant new performers come together to bring this world to life, once again. We start shooting in a couple of weeks, and everyone is doing their best to make the fans proud."
Star Wars: Episode VII is being directed by J.J. Abrams from a screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan and Abrams. Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Bryan Burk are producing, and John Williams returns as the composer. The movie opens worldwide on December 18, 2015.

Odd to read an article about a new Star Wars movie without the name George Lucas being mentioned.
And was anyone expecting a composer other than John Williams? lol

One article I read today said Harrison Ford's role is expected to be quite significant. If true, we could finally get a theme for Han^^
Han had a theme. How many times does the “love theme” get played for Han and how many times for Han and Leia? Heck, it introduces him in ESB.

I meant a theme specifically for his character as opposed to a theme for a relationship.
That love theme, while one of my favorites, doesn't try to define the awesomeness that is Han Solo.
Since it’s the internet, I’ll argue with you.  I think as used when Luke talks to Han on his comlink (at the beginning of ESB), when the Falcon detaches from the Star Destroyer, and of course The Asteroid Field totally sum up the awesomeness that is Han Solo.
But sure, a new theme for a man thirty some years older would be appropriate.

I'm sure we'll get a whole lot of new themes.

I can't ever imagine arguing the lack of or presence of a theme for Han with anyone in person^^.
I just long for a specific theme for Han as iconic and memorable as Williams' themes for Darth, Luke, Indiana, and Superman, etc. I know there's a parallel universe out there where such a theme exists. If I ever invent a parallel universe machine, that's the first universe I'll visit, and I'll probably never leave. And I'll take you with me.
