We know he loves to keep secrets. J.J. Abrams is no fan of the spoiler seeker. Lost is a good example, keeping everyone waiting until the (ultimately disappointing) end. Cloverfield made you guess and contemplate what exactly was it that hit the water in the trailer. Star Trek Into Darkness had a spoiler free opening with Cumberbatch playing a character that made everyone raise their eyebrows. Well it seems Star Wars VII is going to be holding it's cards close to it's chest if the director gets his way.
In an interview with The Telegraph, the director of the upcoming 'Star Wars: Episode VII' reveals that he's more at home when a project is shrouded in secrecy… even if it didn't work out quite so well in 'Star Trek Into Darkness'.
"We were trying to preserve the unexpected for the audience," he said about the decision to keep Benedict Cumberbatch's character a secret. "But it came across as if we were trying to be too clever."
"Star Wars is in every way a different animal. It's always been a more open, fan-engaged universe than I've been used to, so I'm sure there'll be some sort of compromise. But it feels to me like there's a purity in not knowing every little thing."
