The upcoming episode of Stars Wars will most probably feature a climax involving Disney-signature true love's kiss.

Or not! But what we are sure of is that Disney, which bought Star Wars two years ago, will not include any ideas coming from George Lucas, the Star Wars creator himself.

Speaking to CinemaBlend, Lucas admitted that Disney actually rejected his ideas for the new trilogy including the upcoming "Episode VII: The Force Awakens," the Entertainment Weekly reported.

"Well, the ones that I sold to Disney and everything, they came up to the decision that they didn't really want to do those. So they made up their own," Lucas said.

"It's not the ones that I originally wrote," he said, according to Deadline Hollywood.

Unfortunately, Lucas did not go into detail about how fleshed out his ideas were.

But what is interesting is that both Lucas and Producer Kathleen Kennedy were said to be working with screenwriter Michael Arndt back when Lucas was working on the script for the movie, before he was replaced by J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan.

Star Wars is an American epic space opera franchise centered on a film series created by Lucas.

The film series is made up of two trilogies with an upcoming third, which has spawned an extensive media franchise called the Expanded Universe.

In 2012, The Walt Disney Company acquired Lucasfilm for a tag prize of $4.05 billion and announced that it would produce three new films, with the first film, "Episode VII: The Force Awakens."

Planned for release on Dec. 18, 2015, 20th Century Fox still retains the distribution rights to the first two Star Wars trilogies. It also owns permanent rights for the original film "Episode IV: A New Hope," while holding the rights to Episodes I–III, V and VI until May 2020.
