Details about "Star Wars: Episode VIII" have been kept a secret, just like "The Force Awakens."
Star Wars Force Awakens director Rian Johnson was sued by a former agent over commission disputes. Meanwhile, ‘Jurassic Park’ alumna Laura Dern reportedly joins the cast for the upcoming installment of the sci-fi franchise and Andy Serkis, the voice behind First Order Supreme Leader Snoke, hasn’t received his copy of the script yet.
"Star Wars: Episode VIII" is very close to casting the female lead.
"Star Wars Episode VIII" will be released on May 26, 2017, the CEO of Walt Disney Bob Iger announced.
