Nothing cynical about 'Star Wars Episode 7': Oscar Isaac

Los Angeles: Actor Oscar Isaac says there is nothing "cynical" in Star Wars Episode VII. Isaac, 35, will have a role in JJ Abrams's highly-anticipated sequel alongside original trilogy stars Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill, reportedly.

"They're such funny people. Carrie is hilarious and doing such cool work. Harrison is back. He went on hiatus for a little while, but he's 150 per cent back. It's pretty amazing to see him bounce back. He looks incredible," Isaac said.

"Everyone's having a really good time. JJ sets that tone. There's a lot of enthusiasm and it's being done with a lot of heart. There's nothing cynical about the way we're doing this.

"Even in the way he's shooting it - he's shooting on film and actually building the sets, so you've got hundreds of Stormtroopers or whatever, and hundreds of extras and all the ships. You actually see it. It's all real. Everyone can interact with the world," he added.

Isaac is joined in the main cast by John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Domhnall Gleeson, Lupita Nyong'o, Gwendoline Christie and Andy Serkis. 'Star Wars Episode VII' opens on December 18, 2015.
