Little is known about the upcoming Star Wars film.
Confirmed facts include Michael Arndt as screenwriter and the film's impending release in 2015.
Many rumors circulating about the new film include the return of Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford to continue the story that ended in "Return of the Jedi". All three actors expressed interest in returning for the project and now it seems that Billy Dee Williams has been added to that list.
According to Movie Hole, a source has not only confirmed the return of Luke, Leia, and Han Solo, but also the return of Lando Calirissian.
When actor Billy Dee Williams was questioned about the possibility of returning to his role, he replied "I suppose so."
Peter Mayhew, who plays Chewbacca in four Star Wars movies also stated that he would love to return to the films. If Lando is returning with the old crew, then there is no reason that Chewie would be excluded from a return.
Another rumor flying about includes the return of Lawrence Kasdan as the writer for Episodes 8 and 9. According to Deadline.com, the scribe of Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi is being courted by Disney to pen the other episodes for the new trilogy.
