May 2014 Preview
May is always an exciting month for Star Wars, and 2014 promises to be no exception. With big news already announced and the filming of Episode VII set to begin, it’s already underway!
Star Wars Weekends – The annual event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Florida takes on even more significance this year. It will feature the first appearance by Mark Hamill, and only weeks after he was confirmed as a member of the Episode VII cast. We’ll also get to meet many of the voice actors from the upcoming television series Star Wars Rebels, and some old favorites will return. As usual, FANgirl will have reports from the event.
Episode VII and the Future of Star Wars – With the cast of the next Star Wars movie announced just before the start of the month, no doubt much more news is in store for May. We’ll also have blog posts discussing the announcement of four more Star Wars novels, the role of the Story Group in shaping the future of the franchise, and thoughts on the cast members revealed so far.
Fangirls Going Rogue – This month’s episode features an interview with Vanessa Marshall, the voice of the Twi’lek captain Hera Syndulla on Star Wars Rebels, and tips from Tricia and Teresa for making Star Wars Weekends the best experience possible.
