Star Wars Episode VII has seen a lot of casting rumors recently, and it looks like the huge sequel might have an open casting call giving us some details about some of the characters. Seems that a “major Disney movie” sent out a open casting call through a Twitter account from casting agent Claire Curry. Jedi News then shed some light on the casting call, and this “major Disney movie” is definitely Star Wars 7. Here is what they are looking for:
SEEKING YOUNG WOMAN TO PLAY 17-18 YEAR OLD. MUST BE BEAUTIFUL, SMART AND ATHLETIC. OPEN TO ALL ETHNICITIES (INCLUDING BI AND MULTI RACIAL). MUST BE OVER 16.
RACHEL – Was quite young when she lost her parents. With no other family, she was forced to make her way in a tough, dangerous town. Now 17, she has become street smart and strong. She is able to take care of herself using humor and guts to get by.
Always a survivor, never a victim, she remains hopeful that she can move away from this harsh existence to a better life. She is always thinking of what she can do to move ahead.
SEEKING YOUNG MAN TO PLAY 19-23 YEARS OLD. MUST BE HANDSOME, SMART AND ATHLETIC. MUST BE OVER 18.
Thomas – Has grown up without a fathers influence. Without the model of being a man, he doesn’t have the strongest sense of himself, despite this he is smart, capable and shows courage when it is needed. He can appreciate the absurdities in life and understands you can’t take life too seriously.
Now do not look too into this, because J.J. Abrams likes to throw curve balls to people, and did something similar to this with his movie Super 8. These characters may be figments of his imagination to throw us off, so if I hear anything more I will let you know.
