Matthew Vaughn Top Pick Candidate for Next Star Wars Film

Matthew Vaughn, who directed "Kick-Ass" and "X-Men: First Class", is now on the list to possibly direct the upcoming "Star Wars: Episode VII".

Other directors have said that they aren't attached to the position, which makes Vaughn the most likely candidate for the job. There have been no comments from the studio or from the director.
