J.J. Abrams Reacts To 'Star Wars: Episode VII' Photo Leaks, Millennium Falcon Rumors

J.J. Abrams, in light of a recent leak of photographs from the Star Wars: Episode VII set, has made it known he wants to keep details regarding the franchise installment under wraps.

J.J. Abrams Reacts To Set Pic Leaks

Abrams took to Twitter on Wednesday afternoon to ask that no more photos get leaked, and also to dispel the rumor that the Millennium Falcon – Han Solo’s spacecraft – would be making an appearance in the film.

“I wish people would stop leaking photos from Episode VII,” Abrams wrote on a note pictured in the Twitter snap. “And making ridiculous claims that the Millennium Falcon is in the movie.”

Though Abrams' note might read like a stern warning, it was also meant to be humorous for hardcore Star Wars fans. The note, penned on Abrams' stationary, was positioned upon a holographic chessboard from Episode 4. “It’s not wise to upset a wookie,” says Han Solo in the scene from the film. After some consideration, C-3PO agrees, “Let the wookiee win.”

The photos in question, published by TMZ, gave a glimpse at Episode VII's Abu Dhabi set. They showed men dressed in desert gear in what is presumably Tatooine, a hog-like creature and possibly the construction of the Millennium Falcon.
