Real sets. Practical Effects. You’ve been here, but you don’t know this story. Nothing’s changed, really. I mean everything’s changed, but nothing’s changed. That’s the way you want it to be, really. To see the way the technology has evolved. And yet, keeping one foot in the pre-digital world.
And Carrie Fisher:
It couldn’t be more exciting. It’s still surreal.
This is going to be amazing.
