Episode VII Cast Party Honoring Carrie Fisher’s Birthday.

58th BirthdayWith recent news of Star Wars: Episode VII soon to wrap we’ve learned that there was a special cast party celebrating Carrie Fisher’s fifty-eight birthday! Read more after the hyperspace jump.

 

Last week, during the opening of a new Industrial Light and Magic studio in London, Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy revealed that the highly watched Episode VII production was soon to wrap in a short three weeks time. With that in mind, and with various reports of key actors wrapping their parts, we learn via entertainmentwise.com that many of the cast were in London Monday giving Carrie Fisher a birthday bash.

 

Carrie Fisher's 58th

Among those photographed leaving Zuma in London were Harrison Ford. Note that Ford has his hair parted in the middle as he does for “Han Solo,” aside from his traditional side part, which is only interesting as he was supposed to have wrapped his role already as Viral Hide reported via The Daily Mail. Perhaps he stayed on for the party OR perhaps he hasn’t wrapped at all? It seems that since he was the one who had to miss the time filming that he would be the last of the major actors to wrap his part. Just speculation though.

 

Carrie's 58th

Those photographed included JJ Abrams, as well as Daisy Ridley and John Boyega. Adrien Brody, he of King Kong and Son of Sam fame, was also seen exiting the party, although he was never mentioned in association with the Episode VII production. Before anyone runs around scouring the net for info on who he’s playing, the Entertainmentwise suggests that it is “Harry Houdini” since Adrien has been working with JJ’s dad, Gerald, on the TV mini-series.

 

Speaking about Daisy Ridley, Deadline just reported that she has signed with CAA and the plan is “for her character to carry through the second and third films that will be directed by Looper helmer Rian Johnson”.

 

Remember that she first signed with UTA two months ago.

Agency signing pursuits are often helped if they rep the director and have cause to be around, and Abrams is a CAA client. Ridley also dropped her UK rep Jonathan Arun, but continues to be repped by attorney Shelby Weiser of Sloane, Offer, Weber & Dern.

Also Disney’s Chief Alan Horn was among the guests.

Those NOT photographed leaving the party include Mark Hamill, Oscar Isaac, and Gwendoline Christie. This suggests that those NOT in London still filming have already departed on to other projects or just home for rest.

      Why? Because they’re scuffed up? Westerners are so spoiled.

        Yeah, I mean God forbid we “spoiled Westerners” go through the process of pulliing stuff out of the dirt with our bare hands and fashion the mass production & distribution of high quality goods to have the unmitigated GALL to actually want a *GASP* fresh pair of non-scuffed boots. Silly “Westerners” …. And just remember, it’s those “spoiled Westerners” who made it possible for you to be reading this on an electronic device IN THE FIRST PLACE.

    Just have to point out that Harrisons hair has DEFINITELY been cut. It was longer for Han Solo. So this picture does in fact prove he’s done filming

    Now how about some Episode VII news, Alan Horn? Oh wait, we’re not Marvel fans, that’s why you’re not showering us with goodies. I remember.

    That photo with Harrison and Alan has me worried. Harrison’s shoe laces are untied. He might break his legs again if he falls and if there are any re-shoots it could all be in jeopardy.

    I’d say, if Leia was maturing into some far out inscrutable greater force powered mystic galactic emperess figurehead in a sequel trilogy, well could there be anyone much more prime perfect than Carrie Fisher for such a role!

    I’m glad she’s back n all but holy shit, it’s hard to believe she was once smokin hot ass. But again, I wouldn’t want anyone else as Leia!

    Her daughter is playing her younger-self in flash back story line about the sith inquisitors tie in line with episodes 1-6. This is where we are getting Darth Vader in episode 7, and perhaps Palpy too.

    Ford really looks surprisingly good. But those photos are usually not fair. Being drowned by lighting of camera flashes. Usually makes anyone look like hell.
    I despise anyone using flashes on their camera. Every phone got flashes on auto. As if you couldnt simply augment the natural light with technical marvels. No you still need thos awfuls flashes.
    I just think if a motiv needs a flash of light, its not worth the picture.

    I used to come to this site to see the comments, feedback and insights of fans. Unfortunately, it appears that there is no moderator and it’s just become a sandbox of degenerate trolls.

    So, with that, I’m out of here. There are other places to check out news on the new flick and far less annoying ones.

    And, as for these raging wars of words between the OT fans and the PT fans… get over it! They’re movies! Don’t be so defensive if someone doesn’t like a movie that you happen to enjoy. You didn’t make them… and judging by the amount of time you spend trolling this site, you haven’t done much worthwhile with your lives anyways, yet alone make a film.

      don’t take things so seriously, sccept peoples differences, overlook them, its how we are supposed to get along. tollerance. people are so on edge these days, a product of their environment. now if you were being harmed in some way, then you should indeed take offence, but come on people having a laugh now and again makes you upset? also, the word troll is used far too much, and often out of context. go on, someone call me a troll (oh this is too easy)

    I’m sorry, how does Carrie look “fab” in any way? She’s augmented the years of hard living with plastic surgery and Botox. I mean…my goodness…look at her lips!

    I do think it’s odd we have heard nothing about her role. I think it’s going to be incredibly small…especially because her voice sounds so scratchy now.

    Oh and Darth Outtahere…you realize theresca forum now called The Cantina, right. You can always try your opinions there…or perhaps the Internet isnt for you.
