One of the most anticipated bits of news right now as to who will be in the cast for Disney’s upcoming Star Wars: Episode VII. Well, we don’t have the answer to that question yet, but we do know by when we should be getting that answer at the latest.

According to HitFix, principal photography on the film is scheduled to take place from mid-May through September of this year and that “most principal casting on the film is complete, with many announcements still to come.”

We do know with a fair amount of certainty that every who can come back from the original Star Wars trilogy will be coming back, from Mark Hammil, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford to Anthony Daniels and even Billy Dee Williams and Peter Mayhew.

As to who will be joining them? Well there’s a number of rumored candidates from over the several months – from Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael B. Jordan, Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, Jack O’Connell, Alex Pettyfer, Saoirse Ronan, Jesse Plemons, Michael Fassbender, Hugo Weaving, Adam Driver and even Dame Judi Dench, though we’re calling BS on that one.

It sounds as if time is running out on whom you should be placing your money on.
