Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters on December 18.

“I’m looking forward to seeing whether or not the film will debunk the theory about Jar Jar Binks being a Sith Lord”, Montejo said.

Aside from broad character outlines, details are being kept tightly under wraps, prompting endless online speculation by fans eager to see the saga’s first film installment in a decade.

Audiences of the new film also won’t see any Ewoks, the furry creatures from 1983′s “Return of the Jedi”, Kennedy said.

I can’t involve myself in that mentality. “We’ll have to wait and see”, Ridley said.

Boyega, who plays rogue stormtrooper Finn, appears as one of the main three leads on the previously released global poster for JJ Abrams’ film. Designed for fans of the film franchise, the areas include movie memorabilia and replicas of Star Wars props, along with interactive video games and Star Wars merchandise. “It’s nice that I don’t have that pressure of trying to live this dream that they felt a part of”.
