After the well-deserved success of J.J Abrams’ Star Wars: The Force Awakens, fans are already anticipating any updates for Star Wars: Episode VIII. With this in mind, it seems that Daisy Ridely’s Rey could be sharing her limelight as the female lead, for rumours on CinemaBlend have revealed that The Diary of a Teenage Girl star Bel Powley and Jane The Virgin’s Gina Rodriguez could be cast in 2017’s Star Wars: Episode VIII.
Previously rumoured potential cast members included Orphan Black’s Tatiana Maslany and Me and Earl and the Dying Girl’s Olivia Cooke. Set for release in May 26, 2017, the eighth edition to the saga is being directed by Rian Johnson, leaving several fans wondering whether he’ll follow in Abrams’ triumph. Again, take this news with a pinch of salt, it’s early days, but expect more updates when possible.
