Yesterday, with the occasion of Star Wars Day, Vanity Fair released some photos from its new issue which focused on J.J. Abrams' "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens". The images offered some interesting character portraits which included Adam Driver's Kylo Ren, Gwendoline Christie's Captain Phasma and Oscar Isaac's Poe Dameron. There's also a shot of Lupita Nyong'o wearing motion capture gear which clearly suggests that she will be playing a CGI character. There are no more story details available at this point, leaving everyone eager to speculate as to what Abrams is preparing with this sequel. Needless to say, the hype surrounding this movie is incredibly high.
The film also stars John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Andy Serkis, Crystal Clarke, Pip Andersen, Domhnall Gleeson, Max von Sydow, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and Kenny Baker.
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" opens in theaters on December 18, 2015.
