Director JJ Abrams assured that "Star Wars" Episode 7 won't be "Disney-fied," as some fans feared that the studio will mess the latest movie up. Meanwhile, the Dark Side might be composed of several factions, according to the latest news and rumors.
In an interview for Vanity Fair, as reported by Indiewire, he said that Disney has made a good choice by allowing them free rein into translating their vision onto the film for "Star Wars" Episode 7, even if the studio will take control of the franchise later on.
"I cannot say enough about how [Robert] Iger and Alan Horn have understood this thing that is now part of the Disney company. And they're not trying to Disney-fy it," he said. "They're not doing anything other than, I think, an incredibly smart thing, which is letting Kathleen Kennedy - who is a remarkable person and producer - run and lead Lucasfilm to a place where I think it wants to go."
He also said that Robert Allen Iger, the CEO of Walt Disney, allowed them to "make the movie we wanted to make" without any interference, and that's something that fans can take away when "Star Wars" Episode 7 will be released in theaters on Dec. 17, 2015.
Meanwhile, in other news and rumors, Movie Pilot said that the Dark Side is not just one entity but rather several forces all working under Supreme Leader Snoke.
Among the most powerful are The Grand Moffs, The First Order and The Knights of Ren, whose represented by Kylo Ren (Andy Serkis.)
The Grand Moffs, according to the article, were the governors of the Emperor from the old Empire. The First Order, meanwhile, are "the main muscle of the Force Awakens villains," while the Knights of Ren are shrouded in mystery.
"They have a collection of Sith relics and are in search of the legendary Skywalker lightsaber," it said.
