Star Wars Episode VII director JJ Abrams is reportedly looking at five actors for the lead role in the 2015 blockbuster. They are: Downton Abbey's
Ed Speelers, Attack the Block star
John Boyega, Jesse Plemons, theater actors
Matthew James Thomas and
Ray Fisher. Not much is known about the role right now but it is believed to be the film's main protagonist and a Jedi.
The director is open to a diverse cast, with both David Oyewolo and Michael B. Jordan having done screen tests in early production. Abrams is expected to give the lead role larger actors in support, like Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford.
