From Latino Review:
Disney conspicuously kept Star Wars out of this year’s Comic-Con slate only to have it at it’s own annual D23 Expo, which is about three weeks away, August 9-11 in Anaheim

It's great to see he's doing those meetings even if they are (likely) not turning into roles. A lot of people will be meeting with JJ for Star Wars. But perhaps he will remember Zac for another movie he does in the future.

You're probably right but I can't imagine not choosing Zac for Luke's son. He's the perfect candidate for that role, possessing the boyish innocence, the wide-eyed dumbfounded youth, the soft tenor voice, the physical attributes - I mean, he's effin perfect for it. Leo is the complete opposite - too old, too puffy, too bald...just, no. Gosling is a better choice than Leo, but he's got a clever, trickster element to his acting that doesn't fit with Luke. Zac is the perfect choice, and I'm not saying that because I'm a cougar with a female hard-on for him, lol. I'm saying that from a point of complete disinterest, looking at it objectively.
If they can choose Hayden for Anakin then they can damn well choose Zac for Luke's son. Just sayin.

Yeah, I also think Zac will be perfect as Luke's son. Unfortunately, I don't see Zac getting cast in the new Star Wars film. People already hate that Disney acquired Star Wars, and they'll go berserk if a (former) Disney star gets a role in it.

I just hope it's true that he at least had meetings with J.J. even if he doesn't end up getting the role. JJ is my favorite director and I hope he's different from others who look down on Zac because of his Disney past. It's really sad to see how much hate Zac is getting after the Star Wars rumors broke.

Funny thing how both Zac and Ryan started at Disney, but no one mentions that.

Idt it's "hate" just a bunch of fanboys upset which tbh, I rather like lol. But fanboys were dead set against Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, then the movie came out and they loved her.

I strongly object to this cannard. Zac did NOT "start" at Disney! He was an established teen actor. He auditioned for HSM and won the part, no one understands why, but he just walked in off the street. He didn't work for Disney before HSM and he hasn't worked for them since.

Truer words were never spoken. His boyish quality, which has probably kept him from being cast in big action thrillers, renders him perfect for the Star Wars universe.

There is no other choice. But this is Hollywood, so they will probably go for someone else.
