Pic/AFP &quot;There is no truth to the rumour Benedict has been cast in Star Wars. I think the rumours are circling because JJ and Benedict have just recently had a wonderful time working together on Star Trek,&quot; said the representative. Speculation had been intensified because of the timing of Cumberbatch&#39;s exit from director Guillermo Del Toro&#39;s &#39;Crimson Peak&#39;. &#39;Star Wars: Episode VII&#39; is scheduled to start filming in London early next year.u00a0
