by Doc on Nov.08, 2012, under Movies
Michael Arndt, who won the Oscar for the screenplay for 2007’s Little Miss Sunshine and was nominated last year for Toy Story 3, wrote extensive treatments for the three proposed Star Wars sequels and will write the Episode VII screenplay that is now moving forward after Disney acquired Lucasfilm last week. The treatments were apparently written several months ago, well before the acquisition.
Arndt also wrote the upcoming Hunger Games: Catching Fire screenplay.
Disney hopes to release Episode VII in 2015.
