“That’s because Harrison insisted on it”, she joked, referring to Harrison Ford, who returns to play Han Solo in Force Awakens.

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” is in theaters December 18.
“Star Wars” has attracted generations of loyal fans ever since the first film arrived almost 40 years ago, creating a signature moment in the history of pop culture and launching one of the biggest movie franchises ever.
Jar Jar Binks, a bumbling comic-relief Gungan from the planet Naboo, made his debut in the first “Star Wars” sequel, “The Phantom Menace”, in 1999. Did fashions in the real world influence the kind of clothes, the way you dressed the characters in the Star Wars world?
“Kathleen Kennedy brought up the idea of ‘Who is Luke Skywalker?'”, Abrams says.
THR believes Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, The Huntsman’s Winter War, X-Men Apocalypse, and Independence Day: Resurgence are “likely” to have their trailers running in front of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Asked about his on-screen character Finn, he said: “He’s in and out”.
A more reserved statement than “I really liked it” perhaps, but an unsurprising one considering Lucas’ recent comments where he equated letting go of his franchise to going through a divorce.
According to a report by Making Star Wars, Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) does not have any scars on his face under the mask.
The Brit – who stars alongside Daisy Ridley in the new sci-fi movie – admitted there’s no point trying to reason with people who are unwilling to listen to logic.

Some fans might be bemused that Kennedy even had to confirm that as thus far there’s been no sight of the bumbling Gungan who was once voted the most annoying movie character of all time.
