For fans of Star Wars, any drip of information about the latest upcoming epic in the long-running fantasy franchise is valuable. A concept photo released by the studio shows a charred Darth Vader helmet; a pretty good indicator that everyone¡¯s favourite villain will most likely not be making a full-form appearance in the first of the upcoming trilogy.

Star Wars 7 is scheduled for release in late 2015 and is set 30 years after the ¡®The Return of The Jedi¡¯. Fans can expect to see cast members such as John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Harrison Ford, Andy Serkins and Oscar Driver who have all signed up for Episode 7.

Fans have been following the production stages, which have seen some mishaps, including Harrison Ford suffering a bone fracture after a hydraulic door fell on set. After a two-week delay, production recommenced and is currently in the final stages.
