AceShowbiz - Director J.J. Abrams broke his silence on the movement launched against "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" on Twitter. The upcoming movie was blasted by Internet trolls for being "anti-white" and a movement to boycott the film with hashtag "#BoycottStarWarsVII" was launched.

One tweet accused "Star Wars" of being an "anti-white propaganda promoting #whitegenocide." Abrams then responded in a note just before the new trailer was out, "We cannot wait to share the trailer with you tonight. I don't care if you're black, white, brown, jawa, wookiee, jedi, or sith. I just hope you like it!"
