At long last, Disney's "Star Wars" sequel has found its director ? and it's a bold choice, to say the least.

"Star Trek" filmmaker J.J. Abrams is Disney's choice to helm "Star Wars: Episode VII," according to reports published by TheWrap.com and Deadline.com. MTV News has confirmed the report with a source close to the production. Emails and calls to representatives at Disney and Abrams' Bad Robot were not immediately returned.

Abrams was frequently cited as a fan-favorite pick for the "Star Wars" job, but his connection to the "Star Trek" series seemingly took him out of the running. Abrams even clarified in a December interview that he was approached by Lucasfilm to direct the new "Star Wars" movie, but he passed out of loyalty to "Trek."

Is that a good thing?

Lame. I guess they made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

Bay is good with action and explosions but maybe not that good with space SyFy

Forgot to add that I was being facetious. And I while heartedly agree with your assessment of Michael Bay. Althought it wouldn't surprise me if the had chosen him, considering the poor casting and over use of action as well as the lack of substance in the last 3 movies

It's "breaking news" to me, and I don't know if its a good thing or not. It's still cool though.

I'm pretty sure directing both Star Trek and Star Wars is illegal.
