Samuel L Jackson talks Star Wars: Episode VII.... again




It's official: Samuel L Jackson likes talking about 'Star Wars: Episode VII' more than the internet does.

Jackson was a guest on David Letterman's US talk show last night and had some very interesting things to say about the latest 'Star Wars' movie.

Okay it's not that interesting.

"I went to London to start another film, and I'm in the film with Mark Hamill so I asked Mark if he'd heard from J.J. Abrams, and he said: 'No'. Then all of a sudden Ewan [McGreggor] was there and I spoke to him on the phone and asked if he was there doing 'Star Wars' and he said: 'No, they didn't call me."

Go on...

"So I was thinking maybe all three of us should get together and just and go over to the 'Star Wars' set one day and just stand around and see if maybe they could use some old Jedi."

That's more like it.

Jackson clearly loves 'Star Wars' and it's always great to see actors speaking as fans. He'd jump at the chance to be in the new film, even though his character Mace Windu was electrocuted and thrown off a skyscraper some 60 years prior to when 'Episode VII' will take place in the 'Star Wars' universe.

As for the little nugget about Mark Hamill not being involved, we all know that he likely will be, so maybe Sam Jackson was just being a bit creative with his story.

With two years until the film hits cinemas, stay tuned for a lot more of Jackson's 'Star Wars' ramblings.
