JJ Abram’s old mate Greg Grunberg will have some sort of role in the former’s “Star Wars : Episode VII”.
Grunberg has either appeared or been heard in most of Abram’s work, including “Felicity”, “Alias”, “Lost”, “Mission : Impossible III”, and “Star Trek” (he voiced the role of James Kirk’s stepfather).
The actor tweets :
Yes @smgulz it IS safe to assume I have a role in #StarWarsEpisodeVII – If I say more than that, JJ will have me killed.

Meantime, “Avengers” muscle Mark Ruffalo tells Collider that he recently reached out to his “Brother’s Bloom” director Rian Johnson to see if there isn’t anything available for him in the upcoming “Star Wars : Episode VIII” (which Johnson is directing).
I just reached out to Rian recently, by the way. My email to Rian after all these years was, ‘Rian, congratulations on everything you’ve been doing. And by the way, if there’s a part in Star Wars, please, anything, please consider considering me to join you.’ I love hanging out with Rian so [just hanging out on set] is interesting to me, but I would like a role.
