Star Wars Episode VII: The George Lucas Version Was VERY Different

Star Wars Episode VII went through several radically different versions before it became The Force Awakens, including George Lucas’s original sequel treatments, Michael Arndt’s early development and a much larger role for Luke Skywalker. We break down how Kira became Rey, how the Jedi Killer evolved towards Kylo Ren, why Luke was pushed to the end of the movie, and which abandoned ideas later resurfaced across the sequel trilogy. The biggest twist is that the Episode VII we never got wasn’t one lost George Lucas movie at all, but several different versions of Star Wars gradually transforming into the film we know today. Let me know whether you’d rather have seen Luke join the adventure from the beginning or keep his final reveal.
