Michael Arndt’s older script for Star Wars: Episode VII was focused on the offspring of the heroes from the original trilogy, Luke, Han, and Leia. Because of some differences in opinion, Michael Arndt left the project, with J. J. Abrams assuming the rewriting role.
As it seems, the director wanted to put a greater focus on Luke, Han, and Leia, with their children playing only a second fiddle, because he felt that the audiences should have a last chance of enjoying their favorite characters before they were written off.
Of course, episodes VIII and IX will focus completely on the still unnamed children of Luke, Leia, and Han.
Due to these differences of opinion between J. J. and Arndt, Star Wars: Episode VII’s release date was pushed back to December 2015.
