'Star Wars 7: The Force Awakens' Trailer & Plot: 'Game of Thrones' Cast Character Roles Revealed, Who Will Miltos Yeroleou, Jessica Henwick Play? [Rumors]

Good news for "Star Wars" fans. After months of waiting for updates on the second "Star Wars" anthology, there is a new scoop about the anticipated TV show.

According to Cinelinx, Disney will be partnering with Netflix for their "Star Wars" shows. This is despite the initial rumors that "Star Wars" will be aired on TV and is pegged to be broadcasted via ABC or on other Disney-owned channels.

However, since Netflix and other online streaming options have quickly overridden regular TV, Disney is taking a new step. In fact, there were rumors about three different live-action shows for Netflix. The extreme success of Disney's "Daredevil" has made the on-demand internet streaming media happy, and, in return, Netflix is more than willing to work with Disney for a cheaper price and continue their business partnership.

As for "Star Wars 7: The Force Awakens," Disney CEO, Bob Iger, revealed that he has already seen the film, hinting that the next franchise is something worth waiting. "I've seen the film without most of its special effects and without most of its music," Iger revealed. "I can't wait for the world to see it," according to CNBC.

Simon Pegg is part of the upcoming show. He was seen in costume in the latest footage of the franchise reboot. As for him being part of the show, the actor said, "I mean, seeing it for the first time [as a kid] and coming out and being so utterly changed by it, it was an incredible thing to be part of it," according to POPSUGAR.

Aside from Pegg, HBOs "Game of Thrones" actors Miltos Yerolemou and Jessica Henwick are set to join the team, SlashFilm reports.

Although it was not confirmed which character Miltos will be playing, the expert swordsman, Syrio Forel in "Game of Thrones," will likely use a lightsaber in the film according to Lizo Mzimba from BBC.

Mzimba tweeted and eventually named the character Miltos will be portraying, HM Patron.

According to StarwarsPost, HM Patron could be a description of his role or the actual name of his character. MakingStarWars speculates that Miltos will be playing a wealthy merchant that deals with Luke's recently found lightsaber or a patron at Maz Kanata's establishment with the codename "Hall of Mirrors."

On the other hand, in a separate report from MakingStarWars, Henwick is rumored to be playing Jessica Pava, a hotshot pilot with a call sign "Blue Three," who wears her dark hair in a ponytail.

"Star Wars: Episode VII" will be released in December.
