Disney Denies Expansion Of Isaac’s Role

There was a rumor swirling yesterday that J.J. Abrams and crew were scrambling with Episode VII rewrites to expand Oscar Isaac’s role in the wake of Harrison Ford’s injury.  I did not post it because it felt like a bit of internet style “connect-the-dottery” from a Gotham newspaper that has a reputation for not letting facts get in the way of a good story.  Low and behold, Disney has categorically denied this rumor.
