Jackson’s eye-patched Nick Fury appeared at the end of 2008’s Iron Man, the studio has become famous for its post-credit scenes. In 2012, The Walt Disney Company purchased Lucasfilm and immediately announced a new sequel trilogy in the “Star Wars” franchise, with J.J. Abrams as the first film’s director. He’s finally seen The Force Awakens. “He really liked it”, producer Kathleen Kennedy told THR, though Lucas himself has yet to speak publicly about the movie.

“Jar Jar is definitely not in the movie”, Kennedy said to applause and cheers. She added: “these guys (patting Boyega on the back) are about to begin production on Episode 8” with “Looper” director Rian Johnson directing it.
John Boyega, actor: “The humour is classic Star Wars”.
“Kennedy has big plans for Phasma and confirmed that the captain will carry on into the next movie”.
Finn, the actor’s character in the upcoming film, is one of the leads and is the only person on the light side of the Force to have been seen wielding a lightsaber in the upcoming film as-yet.
“I have been Princess Leia all my life”, Fisher said.
“Abrams the recalled someone coming up to him asking, “‘You cast someone as attractive as Lupita, and you have her a motion-capture character?’ I’m like, ‘Would it be okay if she were ugly?'” My Dad took me to see the first one, and it left a massive impression on me.
Christie looks great as Captain Phasma. While he’s absolutely right that Star Wars isn’t just about spaceships, there probably aren’t too many fans of the original trilogy who are into it for its soap opera aspects.
