New 'Star Wars' film to be set 30 years after 'Return of the Jedi'

Star Wars fans can take a breath. J.J Abrams will not be sullying the original Star Wars time line with his new installment in the historic franchise. Episode VII, the first film not directed by creator George Lucas, will be set 30 years after the 1983 Return of the Jedi, fitting since it has been roughly 30 years since the last film was released. 

The Star Wars franchise was aquired last year by Disney for a cool 4.05 billion dollars, to the dismay of many fans. Filming is scheduled to begin in May at London's Pinewood Studios, home of the James Bond films. The film is scheduled to be released December 18, 2015.
