Abrams’ Star Wars return

Following director Colin Trevorrow’s departure from Star Wars: Episode IX, Lucasfilm has already secured a replacement – and it’s a familiar face for the saga.

JJ Abrams (pictured, right) will helm his second Star Wars movie after proving his worth with 2015’s The Force Awakens and close the series’ latest trilogy in December 2019.

Meanwhile, It reboot director Andy Muschietti has revealed he would love to see Jessica Chastain play the adult version of youngster Bev in the horror hit’s sequel.
