IRL Villains Threaten “Spoiler Jihadi” If New Star Wars Doesn’t Follow Canon

And yet – because this is the world we live in – a group that spends its time organising petitions against Disney and Lucasfilm to continue creating stories based in Star Wars Legends (the name given to every book, comic, and game made outside of the films) has threatened a “spoiler jihadi” if the The Force Awakens doesn’t follow cannon.

And the veteran actor was delighted to have director J.J. Abrams behind the camera. Described as completely self-sufficient, Rey does everything for herself until she meets Finn (John Boyega).

“I feel relaxed, as I said, and I come here to just be myself and feel real”.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Wednesday that he is “confident” President Barack Obama will see the latest movie in the Star Wars saga “at some point”, reporters said.

“I think it’s a worthy effort”, he said.

Ridley, who plays the film’s heroine Rey, shouted out to her fans on the red carpet, saying: “May the force be with all of you”.

Seriously though, would she rather be Han Solo or Luke Skywalker’s daughter?

He added that he had a “very special affinity” for London, revealing his son was born here while he filmed The Empire Strikes Back.

English actors Anthony Daniels and Kenny Baker, who play C-3P0 and R2-D2, are also set to appear, as is actor Warwick Davis and robot BB-8.

Said Elizabeth Frank, chief content and programming officer at AMC: “You can’t get any broader than this movie when it comes to audience appeal, and this weekend and beyond AMC will offer consumers the opportunity to enjoy Star Wars however they would like – evening, midnight or morning, Imax, Dolby Cinema, 2D or 3D, big cities and small towns, even corporate events and children’s birthday parties”.

British fans with tickets for the first United Kingdom screenings will get a head start over devotees in the USA, where the movie is not released until Friday.
