The director has confirmed that the script for the upcoming blockbuster was just recently completed.
"We're working really hard and we've got our script and we're in deep prep," Abrams noted, "full steam ahead, y'know."
Speaking at a press event, Abrams also confirmed that Jesse Plemons (recently of Breaking Bad) is being considered for a role in the film, saying he "is one of the actors that we've talked to."
Unfortunately, Abrams also revealed that the movie would be shot on film, and not in IMAX. When asked why, the director says the cameras are "very loud ... very unreliable," and "you can't really do intimate scenes with it."
Episode VII will be released in December 2015.
