"Wes Anderson has admitted that he would not be the right choice to direct Star Wars Episode 7. Disney has announced that a Stars Wars sequel will be released in 2015 as part of its deal to buy Lucasfilm. Toy Story 3&amp;#039;s Michael Arndt has been tasked with writing the film.   Moonrise Kingdom&amp;#039;s Anderson has cited the original Star Wars films as a major influence, but he&amp;#039;s now downplayed the likelihood that he might direct the new movie. &amp;quot;Well I have a feeling I would probably ultimately get replaced on the film because I don&amp;#039;t know if I have all the right action chops,&amp;quot; he admitted to Deadline, adding: &amp;quot;But at least I know the characters from the old films.&amp;quot; Anderson added that one project he would be interested in is a film about Millennium Falcon commander Han Solo&amp;#039;s early years. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t think I would do a terrible job at a Han Solo backstory. I could do that pretty well,&amp;quot; he noted. &amp;quot;But maybe that would be better as a short.&amp;quot;  George Lucas previously admitted that he won&amp;#039;t &amp;quot;have much to do&amp;quot; on the new Star Wars film. Star Trek Into Darkness&amp;#039;s JJ Abrams revealed last month that he turned down an offer to direct Star Wars Episode 7, with Steven Spielberg also denying involvement.
