Possible, but only maybe to the fall. I'd be hard to believe they'd move it up back to the summer.
In addition, here JJ talks more about TFA himself.
This confirms:
- He's executive producing Episode 8 and 9 (similar to what George did for ESB and ROTJ)
- They haven't even finished a first rough cut of the film yet.
- Again mentioning them using practical fx wherever possible, and often using CG to remove rather than add things, such as in the case of BB-8.
- Despite this, there will still be much CG, but that it is the combination between the two that counts.
