New The Force Awakens Behind the Scenes Featurette

In addition, the base game is also free to download so be sure to check it out today and get yourself even more hyped for The Force Awakens next week! “That’s how secretive it was”.

An online poll of movie fans in 2006 found Binks to be the most annoying film character of all time.

Basically, the Star Wars cast is us, all of the fans-and this movie is the Force, binding us all together in our sheer and unashamed excitement.

Don’t expect J.J.to just keep revealing bits of the movie like this though – he vowed he won’t answer this question again!

Does Rey, the central character played by Ridley, ever pick up a lightsaber?

“We did an impromptu “may the force be with you” dress-up, with some of us making costumes using old paint trays that we taped around our bodies”, he said. Adam Driver claimed he could not remember if his character, the Darth Vader-like Kylo Ren, had his own theme song.

Nyong’o, who plays the space pirate Maz Kanata, said that Yoda was her first love and would be a good idea for a film.

Not to be forgotten are the beloved droids R2-D2 (Kenny Baker) and C-3PO (Anthony Daniels) as well as Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), Han Solo’s Wookiee co-pilot.

Later in the interview Abrams elaborated on his above thoughts, and revealed that he definitely thinks you should view this film with a crowd. “I’m looking forward to seeing where the characters have gone since the last fall of the empire”, Knecht said, referencing the conclusion of “Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi”. “But I know that people will start talking about what happens immediately”.

Producer Kathleen Kennedy did divulge something fans will not see.

And The Force Awakens won’t be setting up Episode VIII, at least not after the credits have rolled. Newcomers Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Finn (John Boyega) lead a younger generation that grapples with the conflicts that haunted the past. Or Han and Princess Leia’s.
