The Walt Disney Company today announced that it has agreed to acquire Lucasfilm for some $ 4.5 billion and includes Star Wars Episode 7 for 2015!
In a conference call, Disney revealed they plan a new trilogy from 2015 with a new film every two years. This is the result of its large purchases such as Pixar and Marvel Entertainment.
George Lucas and Kathleen Kennedy discuss the future of the Star Wars movies:
this is sadly probably not news to be happy about, the new trilogy was no way near as good as the originals and I hate to think what horrible things Disney will do to the series
