"Star Wars Episode 7" production might not have as many big name stars as you'd think it would.

Despite rumors the original cast members are returning for the "Star Wars" production, "Lost" actor Dominic Monaghan explained to DweebCast director J.J. Abrams isn't looking to bring in A-list talent.

In other words, the rumors about Lupita N'yongo, Adam Driver, Chiwetel ejiofor, Gary Oldman and Benedict Cumberbatch being up for roles might be a huge stretch.

"[Abrams and I] talked about it a few times. Once I knew that he was doing 'Star Wars' I sent him a little congratulatory message and stuff," he told DweebCast. "We've talked a few times about it and he said 'We're putting together a cast of essentially unknowns. We want to follow the '77 'New Hope' cast'."

"Because obviously Harrison Ford wasn't well known at that point, Mark Hamill wasn't and Carrie Fisher wasn't either," he added. "What he said was, 'We don't want to fall into that mistake of people going 'Oh it's that guy from that thing!' and then you're completely out of the 'Star Wars' universe.' "

Unfortunately for fans, the "Star Wars Episode 7" production hasn't confirmed any casting news. However, the production did confirm filming will begin in May and "familiar faces" will be reporting on set.

We regret to announce that Peter Mayhew is canceling his appearance at Comicpalooza this year due to filming.

One of those "familiar faces" could be Peter Mayhew, better known as Chewbacca. A post from Comicpalooza Con's official Twitter account revealed the "Star Wars" actor had to cancel his appearance "due to filming."

Comicpalooza is a huge comic book convention that will be held in Houston, Texas this May, the same time the "Star Wars" production is set to begin filming. Mayhew's return has yet to be confirmed by the "Star Wars Episode 7" production.

"Star Wars Episode 7" will hit theaters on Dec. 18, 2015.
