"The Saga Begins. . . Again."

- Tagline

Star Wars Episode VII: The Saga Reborn is the seventh installment in the Star Wars film franchise, and the first in an all new reboot trilogy.

Development
Following The Walt Disney Company's October 30, 2012 acquisition of Lucasfilm Ltd. from George Lucas, Disney announced that "Star Wars Episode VII" is scheduled for a 2015 release, to be followed by Episodes VIII and IX. Lucas will remain involved as a creative consultant on new Star Wars feature films. Screenwriter Michael Arndt will write the screenplay for Star Wars Episode VII, while J.J. Abrams will direct. The film's story will be completely original and not based on any prior source from the Expanded Universe.

2 ABY
The story begins just after the events of Return of the Jedi, when Luke (Mark Hamill) is called to journey to the planet Byss to answer a distress call from a Rako Hardeen ( Zachary Quinto). When Luke gets there, however, Rako activates his new Starfighter, The Death Star III, and takes Luke back in time, to an alternate reality, where Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor, archived footage) is dead.

17 BBY
Tatooine. Present Day. Luke Skywalker ( Chris Zyska) is working tirelessly in his Uncle Owen's farmstead. He lives a simple life, but runs at the first sight of a Tusken Raider. His friends Biggs ( Justin Bieber) and  Sammy Clarkeside ( Selena Gomez) discuss how Luke used to be fearless, and wanted to go on an adventure, but when a Krayt Dragon ate his father figure and mentor Ben Kenobi, Luke's been a wimp ever since. ..

Meanwhile, in space, the Tantive IV is being chased by an Imperial Star Destroyer. On board are the plans to the Empire's secret weapon, the Death Star. Princess Leia ( Demi Lovato), a young leader of the Rebel Alliance, leads her crew into battle against the enemy forces, until the Rebels are overrunned, and Leia is captured by Stormtroopers. But before being captured, Leia sent the plans (along with a brief message) to the planet Dagobah, to the Jedi Master Yoda (voiced by Frank Oz, respectively), within the droid R2-D2.

Back on Tatooine, Luke is drawn in by a mysterious figure, and is attacked by Tusken Raiders. During the attack, though, the mysterious figure saves Luke, and defeats the Tuskens. Luke asks the man of his name, and is surprised to hear the name Luke Skywalker come from the man's lips. Luke (Hamill) and Luke (Zyska) talk in an abandoned hut about the truth behind the  Universe, and this alternate reality created by Obi-Wan's death.

The two Lukes head to Mos Eisley Cantina, where they meet up with estranged smuggler Han Solo ( Shia LeBouf), and his sidekick, Chewbacca (voiced by Peter Mayhew). Han flies the duo to Dagobah, where Young Luke meets Yoda. Yoda teaches Young Luke the ways of the Force, and later, gives Luke the plans, but only because he met with Luke (Hamill) beforehand, and was told of the events which caused this alternate reality. Yoda joins the crew, and uses the Force to move the Millennium Falcon through space ten times faster than at Lightspeed, until they find the Death Star, which is being circled by Rako, riding his ship. Real Luke takes an X-Wing and chases Rako, while Young Luke, Han, Yoda, C-3PO, R2-D2, and Chewbacca go inside the Death Star to find Princess Leia.
