Via this link:

http://popwatch.ew.com/2013/06/19/star-wars-sequel-characters/

Here's who they're looking for:
Quote:

1. “Late-teen female, independent, good sense of humour, fit.”

2. “Young twenty-something male, witty and smart, fit but not traditionally good looking.”

3. “A late twentysomething male, fit, handsome and confident.”

4. “Seventy-something male, with strong opinions and tough demeanour. Also doesn’t need to be particularly fit.”

5. “A second young female, also late teens, tough, smart and fit.”

6. “Forty-something male, fit, military type.”

7. "Thirtysomething male, intellectual. Apparently doesn’t need to be fit."


So, I guess the New Republic has banned fizzyglug and mandated training programs? Laughing I'm glad that the "thirtysomething...intellectual" and the Christopher Lee/Geoffrey Rush character will be able to eat something other than celery for 6 years while they live up to stereotype casting!

Also, this is old, but I never saw it before: Patton Oswalt delivers the plot we (at least I) dread... http://popwatch.ew.com/2013/04/17/patton-oswalt-star-wars-avengers-crossover-in-an-epic-parks-recreation-improv/

1. Jaina
2. Jason
3. Jagged Fel
5. Tanel Ka Djo
6. Sauntir Fel

4 And 7 are probably CGI characters.

How does the child of Han and Leia end up "not traditionally good looking"?

I'm feeling optimistic that the main protagonist might be female.

From what I saw, the casting call was in England (London, IIRC).

Some reactions here are similar to my initial one: is everybody in the SW universe "fit" now?

Saw that Patton Oswalt bit before; very funny! Laughing
