I've got plenty of Star Wars Episode 7 leaks infos for you to start the week! And it's divide in held: the script / characters details are below and on the D&M Facebook page HERE you'll find not less than twenty-five concept-arts done for Star Wars 7 production which have been leaked last week and believe me they're the real thing, folks, so don't miss them!
Tons of Star Wars 7 infos / rumors are out there right now. and even a huge spoiler hit the internet last week saying how the movie ends - but you won't found this one below as there is limits to what is no big problem to know and what spoils everything. So what you'll read below although still potential spoilers are minor spoilers, but of course you can choose to read them or not.
The first one is coming from Star Wars 7 News, and brings possible details on a cantina scene early on in the movie in which Daisy Ridley’s character meets Chewbacca and Han Solo:
Cantina Scene.
Daisy arrives to Cantina in search of Han or Luke I believe. She is confronted by an alien, she lifts her blaster to him, he then takes it from her hand “Don’t point a blaster at someone if you are not going to use it” and points it at her. At this point Chewie (With arm Bandaged/In a Sling) intimidates the alien, “What good is a one armed wookie” Chewie then rips the guys arm off and hands the blaster back to Daisy. Ford was not present at filming this, BUT……….
Cut to the outside of the Cantina as a Planet/Moon is blown up outside, Han is present here (Wearing a thin cut, waist length leather jacket, boots etc, a “Matching outfit”) oh and he still has his blaster :) I don’t know if he has just arrived to meet up with Daisy and Chewie, but he is cutting through the crowd of onlookers as everyone is witnessing the destruction of “Whatever” was blown up in the sky.
Note, not 100% sure if Boyega was in the scene but he was present, wearing “Rags” or “Untidy” Clothes. [sic]
This scene sounds like it could be a legit description, so we'll see next year if it is or not. The next rumor comes this time from JediNews, and clarifies previous rumors that we've heard about Luke Skywalker being missing since 10 years and Han and Chewbacca finding him with the characters played by Ridley and John Boyega. It also gives us a different reason why these characters are looking for Luke Skywalker.
The concept of “Luke is missing/needs to be found” in Episode VII is being approached somewhat from the wrong angle in other rumor reports. The source says the “find Luke” premise is based off the cast of young characters (Ridley, Boyega, others?) trying to deal with a problem they uncover that they feel they can overcome themselves, presumably something relating to the machinations of the Sith and/or Empire. They feel confident in their abilities to attack this challenge head-on and quickly realize they are severely out-matched and way out of their league. So they alter their plans and scramble to enlist the aid of Luke, who is unaware of the situation ( and how rapidly it escalates to a problem that requires his immediate attention ) at the time of his “searching” by the young cast.
Then, we have a scene description that features a new droid, a lightsaber, and apparently also another kind of Stormtrooper that we'll see in SW7. The scene description is coming from Making Star Wars.
Nighttime under the cover of darkness. Four characters convene.
Imagine the next generation of R2 unit. A jump as drastic as the Return of the JediStormtrooper to the Star Wars: Episode VII Stormtrooper. Sleeker, more futuristic, yet somehow still a little bit 1950s with a dash of Art Nouveau included.
The droid is smaller than R2-D2 and Chopper. His head is just above the knee, but not quiet to the hip, he’s tiny. His head is silver like Artoo-Detoo but his markings are redorange (Note: I originally reported the droid’s markings as being red, but I should have said orange). He has a single eye and two antennas on the top of his head. His neck has a black covering that kind of accordions when he looks around and connects to his body. He is similar to something you might see in Wall-E mixed with one of the senate cams in Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace. He has a holographic projector in the same place as Artoo-Detoo as well. His head looks up.
He’s cute but kind of sad looking in a way.
Standing next to him we have an alien. He’s slightly taller. His face reminds me of Station from Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey. His eyes are just black and tiny, his mouth is almost a round snout which is sort of like an armadillo. His skin is a darker brown color but in this image it appears blue from the light. He has a towel on his head and his costume appears to be similar to a kimono.
In the foreground, Daisy Ridley’s character Kira stands startled as a character ignites a lightsaber and it is very clear this is an unexpected occurrence and all the characters are startled by the enigmatic beam emitting from the lazer sword just turned on accidentally. John Boyega’s character has the lightsaber in hand as the characters all look on amazed.
Kira’s discovery is further enhanced by Boyega’s character’s discovery. This could be one of the most memorable sequences from the next trilogy of Star Wars films.
Above, a picture posted by producer Frank Marshall recently visiting SW7 pinewood Studios set where this poster is put to be seen by anyone visiting the set!
Next is about the Chrome Stormtrooper Commander, and if you follow me on the D&M Facebook page you've seen recently a picture of what the Chrome Stormtooper will look like in SW7 - if you missed it you can see it HERE. On this image the Stormtrooper was wearing a cloak but according to the new description that cloak has been removed. Making Star Wars then go on and describe the leader of these Chrome Troopers:
This leader may be played by Gwendoline Christie. But I can’t sure, that’s the prevailing rumor for now. There are old rumors the character was male and then became female after we fans voiced our concern about the cast being primarily male (which is totally unverified and we were hearing Games of Thrones connections well before the casting announcement anyhow).
The top of the Chrome Stormtrooper commander’s head is not unlike a TIE-Fighter/AT-AT driver helmet. The eyes are more like a classic Stormtrooper’s eyes as opposed to theStar Wars: Episode VII Stormtrooper’s visor look. There’s a chance this changed but with what I looked at, it was like the classic Stormtrooper. The left side of the helmet has a communication type device that moves down and isn’t on the ride side of the helmet. The part underneath the head helmet, the face area, reminds me of a folded napkin (with a Stormtrooper face printed on it) if that makes sense. It doesn’t have the rounded trim at the bottom like the classic Storntrooper, it’s almost like Darth Vader’s mask in a way.
The center of the helmet is black, where the commander’s forehead would be and its kind of like a really tamed centurion (like the AT-AT driver). The armor is very much like the new Stormtrooper chest piece. The character wears a black cape with red lining on the inside.
And now here is an art description from the movie showing a wampa claw lightsaber!
A wampa claw lightsaber. Imagine a wampa claw and the lightsaber fits into the talon. It has a red button on the side. There are two different saber designs that aren’t that far part in differences (one has etching on the nail and the other doesn’t).
This sits at the side of the Chrome Stromtrooper Commander’s right side on a utility belt while the cape flows freely behind him or her in the wind.
The next info comes again from Making Star Wars, and offer great scene descriptions, as well as details on a villain, aliens, and other characters in the movie. Although there's no way to authenticate the descriptions, they do sound very plausible.
The first illustration they're talking about includes six different rebel characters. Three women and three men that are lined up against a white backdrop, apparently dressed similar to extras at Greenham Common’s rebel base set. Here's a description of one of them:
"The first fighter is male, early twenties, he has Adam Driver’s haircut, longer, and kind of swooped to the side. Dark hair. He wears a mustard tunic, closed, with a black best. He has dark brown pants. He wears boots but the ankles are wrapped in white like Anakin Skywalker’s in The Phantom Menace. He looks directly at the camera, blaster in hand and at his side."
The next description is of a character who, although we don't know who this is, looks obviously evil:
"The helmet looks like a samurai helmet. If you took Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and removed all the ornate additions from the helmet, you could have something similar. The back is kind of like Vader’s helmet but it is short, it just protects the back of the head, leaving the neck exposed. The face is covered. But you can see the eyes. This costume is Darth Vader if he were a ninja. Where the eye holes are, there is some light colored design. It has a good vibe about it. It reminds me of Shredder, a little bit of someone from Cobra in the old G.I. Joe and he has a black flowing cloak and red lightsaber which makes it look very cool."
Another info offers a description of huge wickermen tree-type characters which apparently look like the Dark Elves from Thor: The Dark World, and have General Grievous’s head and long brown tunics:
"The figure’s face is almost like General Grievous in spirit. White, skeletal, black eye sockets with little pin points [for] eyes. The mouth is almost like Jerry Lewis style buck teeth. Is it an apparatus? But make no mistake, he’s scary! The face is totally white but its face looks like a mask, but it appears to be its skin, as its hands are the same color. The head is almost pointed but where a hair line would begin, there’s pointy wicker like brambles sticking straight up. The face is almost as if Satan made an army of Shy Guys from Super Mario Brothers and outfitted them with riffles.
"He wears a dirty brown poncho. His boots are sort of like a Tusken Raider’s boots. His pants are tied off. He has a bandolier with bullets and pouches strung across his chest. He has a sniper riffle weapon with a scope on it. At the end of the rifle, the barrel is almost rocket shaped. It clearly isn’t a rocket though. At his waste [SIC] a leather pouch rest covering his belt line."
Making Star Wars also reveal that an illustration features a group of 15 children who are students sitting on little mats on the ground. All of them are aliens except for one little girl. A teacher stands before the class and two of the children have their hands raised. Jump HERE to read descriptions of the characters.
The site also describe a “Special Forces Tie Fighter” believe to be the one that John Boyega’s character flies in the movie, and crash lands in at the start of the film.
"The new Special Forces TIE Fighter is very much the same classic TIE Fighter from the front. But it is black. It isn’t a dull black either, it kind of a shiny black on the body, closer to Darth Vader’s shine than the classic dark TIE Fighter dull black paint. The wings are exactly the same as the TIE wings we’ve seen in the past. The distinguishing feature on these new TIEs is the red markings near the glass cockpit. It is painted red. If the front of the TIE was a clock, two, three, and four o’clock are red on the right. On the left, eight, nine, and ten o’clock are red in that area. The same goes for the back of the fighter."
Last but not least, a final description coming from Making Star Wars is an epic battle that takes place in a forest and include huge pod like creatures, speeder bikes, and even Stormtroopers using flame throwers. It's a long description but here are a some excepts from it and you can read everything HERE.
"This planet is inhabited by large creatures with tentacles. They are not unlike the Expanded Universe’s Orgons. But I do not believe they are one and the same, its just a good comparison. The body is more peanut shaped and the tentacles are easily 90 feet long. The body of these creatures is about 2.5 times the length of a speeder bike. The creatures travel fast with their long arms by grabbing onto the tree cover and traveling like a fast kid on the monkey bars.
"In one piece of concept art we see the trees high into the air. To the far right of the frame, two speeder bikes race for their lives! They’re being chased by two of the tentacled beasts. The bodies of the monsters are shaped like peanuts, we can only see the silhouette of these monsters under the tree cover. They have long tentacles, six in total, three on each side of its body and it use those tentacles to transverse the tree tops chasing down the speeder bikers. The bikers are racing side by side practically, but the beasts are also chasing them side by side and it doesn’t look very good for the biker closest to us in the frame. It seems he’ll likely be killed in a matter of moments."
