Earlier, Star Wars producer J.J. Abrams had revealed that an anonymous actor had forgotten the script of the film under his bed, which was then found by the housekeeper and handed to someone else who posted the script for sale on eBay. The script was available to purchase for a meagre 65 pounds, a Disney employee noticed the script was on sale and brought it before anyone else could. This was one of the biggest goof-ups for any major film franchise, as the script was available to read for fans months before the film's release.
