i Spy: Al-Star Wars

All you Star Wars fans, especially those who live in the Middle East and South Asia, here’s something that’s closer to home. There’s a strong chance that some of the scenes for the Star Wars Episode VII will be shot in Abu Dhabi, for which the film crew will fly out to the UAE next month. The original location was Tunisia, but since the film producers don’t think it’s safe to travel to Tunisia, the next possible location is Abu Dhabi, which may depict parts of the planet Tatooine, home to the Skywalker clan.

By the way, those who are in the know believe that in this edition of the Wars series, actors like Gary Oldman, Lupita Nyong’o and Benedict Cumberbatch will be seen in action. That’s so cool. Or, in Abu Dhabi’s case, that’s so hot.
