This topic can be the source for our episode VIII movie discussions like we had for Ep VII ------------------------------------------------------ In Ep 8 news today (and as rumored), the release date has been delayed from May 2017 to Dec 2017. We know Ep 7 was delayed due to a major script rewrites. I believe it's for a similar reason. http://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-episode-viii-to-open-december-15-2017?cmp=smc|339573415&linkId=20528616 Star Wars: Episode VIII to Open December 15, 2017 The release date for the next film in the saga is confirmed.
