Star Wars: Episode VII
Genre: Sci-Fi Epic
Article continues below Plot: A teeny tiny, rather intimate arthouse movie. You've probably never heard of it. We'd be surprised if you even notice it when it's released.
Jokes.
The biggest sci-fi franchise on the planet returns with Episode VII , helmed by the man responsible for rejuvenating Star Trek , and a whole host of his original sci-fi/fantasy/action-y blockbusters. The only thing confirmed so far is the director, but with Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher all heavily rumoured to be reprising their roles, here's hoping the force is as strong as ever.
