LOS ANGELES (AP) When speaking about “Star Wars”, there are few topics that inspire a twinkle in Harrison Ford’s eyes.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ writer, director and producer J.J. Abrams (L) and producer Kathleen Kennedy appear at the kick-off event of the Star Wars Celebration convention in Anaheim, California, April 16, 2015. “I’m on the “if it tastes good, don’t eat it” diet”. Ford said it didn’t take much to step back into Han Solo’s boots.
Ten days before the opening, people have re-ignited the tradition of getting in line for a ridiculously long period to say they were at the first showing of a new “Star Wars’ movie”. The last time he was seen in the iconic white costume was in “Star Wars: A New Hope” when he infiltrated the Death Star together with Chewbacca, Obi Wan Kenobi and Han Solo in order to save Leia.
While a great many of them come from George Lucas’ prequels, which told the story of a young Anakin Skywalker eventually becoming Darth Vader, a couple of the biggest issues come down to particular characters. But it was surprisingly challenging for her, due to the fact that LucasFilm and Disney wouldn’t even let her watch the movie yet. “The Force Awakens” features several new female leads.

ABRAMS: As someone who really hasn’t been the most vocal advocate of 3-D, the strangest thing happened to me on this. How can you fill your time? Now, maybe we are reading too much into this, but is another nod to the mysterious parentage of Daisy Ridley’s character, Rey? Ridley said, “All those people who might be feeling lonely and then think about all the characters that they share some similarities with – for that to be some kind of buoyancy in someone’s life is incredible”. The mystery box is remaining in tact until the night of December 17th.
