'Star Wars 7' Cast Rumors, Plot Spoilers: New Darth Vader Coming? WWE Champion Sheamus

Fans of the popular epic space opera "Star Wars" has been burning to find updates about who will be included in the upcoming sequel, what would be the plot, and when will it be released. WWE champion Sheamus will join the cast as Darth Vader.

In a recent report by The Telegraph, they indicated the possibility of the wrestling star to join in the latest installment as the new Darth Vader. In his Twitter account, Sheamus posted a picture of a light saber.

Coincidentally, the 6-foot star was spotted in Ireland, where "Episode VII" filming is purported to be taking place.

In a response to a report by the Irish Mirror, Sheamus also took to his social media to shed some light to the allegations.

"I can't confirm that I won't not be reprising role of Darth Vader in #StarWars ... I hope that's clear @IrishMirror."

As of date, both Disney and LucasFilms haven't yet released an official confirmation about the alleged involvement of the wrestler on the movie.

Actor Domhnall Gleeson, whose role is still unknown for the film, talked about how the studio took their signed Non-Disclosure Agreement seriously.

"When you walk from your trailer to the set- you're in Pinewood Studios- you have to put on a big, black cloak thing to cover all your clothes, like full length, 'cause they're worried about people seeing costumes and stuff," Gleeson told ComingSoon.net. "It's crazy."

"Star Wars Episode 7" is scheduled to be released Dec. 18, 2015.
