Star Wars fans may have the chance to appear in the new film.

Director JJ Abrams has announced a new competition online.

Entry into the contest will cost you a minimum donation of 10 dollars. The winner of the contest will be flown to London to be given a role in the film.

Abrams says the contest is meant to help charity. "That's right -- you'll be in 'Star Wars.' But the greatest part is that by entering to join us, you'll actually help us launch something else. 'Star Wars: Force for Change,' a brand new initiative, which is dedicated to finding creative solutions to some of the world's biggest problems. It's about helping kids all around the world by supporting UNICEF Innovation Labs and projects. It's a great thing, you can check it all out on omaze.com/starwars. But thank you again for your incredible support; we look forward to seeing you on-set."

Pre-production for the 7th installment of the Star Wars franchise is now underway.
