Adam Shickling conceptualizes what the Star Wars Episode VII poster may look like. In true Star Wars form, it mimics the original poster style created by Drew Struzan.

In case you've been in hiding like a complete recluse as Yoda did in Dagobah, you will probably know that Star Wars is planning on continuing the series. As a result of this, both Harrison Ford and Carrie Fischer have both signed on. Both actors have aged quite a bit since then and as a result, Adam Schickling may have received his inspiration.

This Star Wars Episode VII poster is quite impressive, but I would have probably covered [Chewbacca](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-tray) in grey hair and put Carrie in her original [Princess Leia slave outfit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-tamagotchi) just for laughs.
