'Star Wars Episode 7' Updates: Plot Leak and J.J. Abrams Unveils X-Wing

By    |   Monday, 21 July 2014 04:13 PM EDT

A bare bones look at the plot of "Star Wars Episode VII" may have leaked and, although the accuracy hasn’t been confirmed, fans wanting a complete surprise when JJ Abrams’ latest epic film comes out may want to (attempt to) avoid the rumors.

In an exclusive story published Sunday, Badass Digest offered up the supposed leaked opening scene "Star Wars Episode VII," as told to the writer by an unnamed source: “Imagine the standard Star Wars crawl, and when it ends the camera pans up to the stars. But instead of a spaceship zooming into frame we see... a hand! A severed hand, tumbling through space. A severed hand gripping a light saber. That hand falls onto a desert planet, where it is discovered by characters who will be our heroes.”

After that starkly visual opening, the website proceeds to offer a basic plot outline: The light saber is recognized as belonging to Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), and everybody, including Hans Solo (Harrison Ford) and Chewbacca, begins searching the galaxy to find the Jedi knight.

Also tackling the task of finding Skywalker are new characters played by Daisy Ridley and John Boyega, the exclusive report said.

Quickly following up its first story, Badass Digest added more details of Boyega’s role, saying, “Boyega as storm trooper is the single most confirmed piece of news I've ever written about in terms of sheer volume of independent sources who agree.”

Quite a few fans went online to say they didn’t want any spoilers — not even the basic details — but it’s hard not to stumble across them.



A charity ad for Unicef released by JJ Abrams Monday got lost amid the plot rumors, but many were still excited to see Abrams’ commercial that featured an X-wing spacecraft.
