The latest Star Wars film is to be made in the UK, producer
Lucasfilm has said.
The seventh movie in the sci-fi series is due to start
production next year and is scheduled for release in 2015.
Filming on previous Star Wars also took place in Britain at
studios including Elstree, Shepperton and Leavesden.
Oh goody another bloody Star Wars movie and who cares if it’s
filmed here, or being made at all, I certainly don’t.
This is one of the things about movies that really grinds my
gears, the studio executives and production teams don’t know when to stop, if
they make a successful movie they just keep churning out sequel after sequel or
prequel after prequel.
They swarm around a movie or series of movies, or ‘franchise’
if you prefer, like a plague of mosquitoes until every commercial avenue has
been sucked dry and then they latch onto the next big thing and do it all over
again.
So don’t be surprised if a long time from now in cinema quite
close to you there is a premiere for Star Wars Episode C.
