Story: It's Official: JJ Abrams Closes Deal to Direct 'Star Wars: Episode VII' - The Hollywood Reporter
It is now official that J.J. Abrams will be the director of Disney's new "Star Wars" film.
Producer Kathleen Kennedy pushed hard for Abrams to accept, even though he said in November that he wouldn't be involved. "Toy Story 3" writer Michael Arndt has been working on the script since October.
I personally would have chosen Joss Whedon first, but he is busy with "Avengers 2." Abrams is a good second choice, though. He breathed new life into "Star Trek," and could here too.
