Behind the scenes of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, from San Diego
Reported by ComicBook.com on Friday, today was released not the “Star Wars: the Force Awakens” trailer, but a behind-the-scenes footage of the film.
But Abrams did debut a behind-the-scenes reel that was made available online shortly after the panel concluded.
Ford had to rely on a walking stick to move around the stage as the veteran is still recovering after a World War II-era training plane he had been piloting crashed this March.
In a day full of surprises at Comic-Con’s “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” panel the coolest was J.J.
The Guardian reported that that queues for the event stood for days. “”Fisher described the return of the sci-fi saga as an” acid flashback”. (The video also showed her manning the iconic starship’s gun turret.) Han doesn’t just let anybody in the co-pilot seat usually occupied by Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), which lends more credence to the thought that Rey may be the daughter of Han and Leia (Carrie Fisher). “It was a long leave off, and now we’re back”.
“I’m fine… great”, Ford said when panel moderator Chris Hardwick asked the actor how he was doing.
“It should’ve felt ridiculous”. “But the company was great”.
Seeing Han Solo healthy enough to make another Kessel run may have been the highlight of the “Star Wars” Comic-Con panel – especially since director J.J. “I was very grateful for the opportunity, for the success of the film”.
“Everything’s changed but nothing’s changed”, Mark Hamill, who plays Luke Skywalker, says in the video. “So I was delighted to be involved”.
Abrams, who promised a new “Force Awakens” trailer this fall, said one of the most important tasks for him was to not let fandom get in the way of making the Disney and Lucasfilm sequel.

Pegg – who plays Scotty in rival franchise Star Trek – won’t be shown in the film as his face is covered up by his costume. Driver, however, gave little away.
When pressed, he talked vaguely about the philosophy of evil. “Whats the difference between being bad and being right?”
In fact, he adds, the experience of directing the film was essentially a fanboy’s dream come true.
He never thought that he’d do another film after the original trilogy.
