To celebrate May the Fourth, Star Wars: Episode VII architects J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan sent a short, sweet "video selfie" today as a little note to hungry fans. In the 23-second video, the pair said they feel "very fortunate" to be working on the next Star Wars installments, and promised more cast announcements in the near term. That's good; having gotten flack last week for casting only one new female character, Abrams has said that one more major female character will be cast. We can't wait.
