Just in from Variety comes word of the five actors on J.J. Abrams' apparent short list to lead "Star Wars: Episode VII." The character is likely of the Jedi variety, meaning he'll tangle with "Girls" star Adam Driver, who might play the "Episode VII" villain. Meanwhile, it's still expected that Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher will reprise their roles from the original trilogy of "Star Wars" films. None of this has been confirmed, however, but expect something to happen soon: it's anticipated that Abrams will being filming "Episode VII" in the spring.
