J.J. Abrams to Direct the new Star Wars

Posted on January 25, 2013 at 10:10 am

I am delighted with the news that J.J. Abrams will direct the new Disney-produced “Star Wars” movie.  The man behind the “Lost,” “Fringe,” “Felicity,” and “Alias” television series has shown himself to be adept at being true to established franchises while revitalizing them with his films “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol” and “Star Trek.”  A perfect choice!  Can’t wait to see where he takes the series.
