STAR WARS EPISODE VII Confirmed As Shooting At Iconic Pinewood Studios

Common sense told us that Star Wars Episode VII would end up shooting in the UK's Pinewood Studios, but it has now been confirmed by Screen Daily that this is indeed where the J.J. Abrams helmed movie will call home while shooting in the country. Production is apparently already moving to the studio in preparation for an early 2014 shoot, and this news should perhaps come as no real surprise at all, especially as all six past instalments in the Star Wars franchise were filmed at UK studios such as Elstree, Shepperton, Leavesden and Ealing. This isn't the only high profile movie to choose Pinewood, as Guardians of the Galaxy, The Avengers 2 and Kenneth Branagh's Cinderella are all gearing up for UK shoots there as well. Whether this will be the case for Episode VIII, Episode VIIII and the planned spin-off's remains to be seen. Stay tuned to for more Star Wars updates!
