Remember when posters used to be
pieces of art that you wanted to put on your bedroom wall and not this new
cookie cutter fashion? Well J.J. Abrams wants to bring that old and dying art
back, and according to Schmoes Know, the director as made contact with famed
poster artist Drew Struzan to do the poster for the new Star Wars movie.
So let’s just get to the amazingness, shall we? We
here at Schmoes Know have learned from a close source to Drew himself that none
other than JJ Abrams has contacted him to come OUT OF RETIREMENT to do the
poster art for Star Wars Episode VII. Not only will this tie in the fan base
and magic of the original trilogy, but it will connect the new saga to the
original feelings we all have based in part from the wonderful posters we all
know and love.
Struzan made some of the classic
poster we all remember, like Jurassic Park, E.T., Indiana Jones, Back to the
Future, Rambo, the Star Wars franchise and many others.
Last year a documentary was made
about the life and work of the artist, and it feature interview with Struzan,
Harrison Ford, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Guillermo del Toro, Leonard
Maltin, Alice Cooper, and many others.
Star Wars:
Episode VII stars Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels,
Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac,
Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, and Max von Sydow.
