'Star Wars 7' News & Plot: Trailer Reveal Next Week, Director Has Final Cut Of Film [Rumors]

Things are definitely moving for the upcoming film "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" with insiders revealing that a new trailer could be hitting the air waves very soon. 

The J.J. Abrams film, "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens" is due out later this year and per Screen Rant, the film-maker is currently in possession of the movie's final cut. However, the publication elaborated that due to a provision in the contract of the film, at any point, Disney can take control of the project. 

This agreement isn't something new and is pretty typical especially given the investment studios make on these mega-blockbusters. 
He maintains that Disney has allowed him and his team to "make the movie we wanted to take" and even referred to Robert Iger of Disney an "incredible collaborator" who "mandates nothing" on the project. 

"I cannot say enough about how [Robert] Iger and Alan Horn have understood this thing that is now part of the Disney company. And they're not trying to Disney-fy it. They're not doing anything other than, I think, an incredibly smart thing, which is letting Kathleen Kennedy - who is a remarkable person and producer - run and lead Lucasfilm to a place where I think it wants to go."
