Star Wars: The Force Awakens Preview
As the trailers for the new Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens comes out, there is a lot of excitement around all of the new story lines.
There is only so much that we do know and even more that we don’t. There are a lot of returning characters along with a whole crop of new characters who will bring new storylines. Staples from previous movies like Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia and Chewbacca will all be back in action. Along with them, some of the notable new characters will be Kylo Ren and Finn played by Adam Driver and John Boyega.
Kylo Ren is the new villain who looks as if he is some sort of Darth Vader protégé or at least sees himself as one. He is a member of the Knights of Ren who came to master the force on his own and also built his own lightsaber and is now on a quest to find Darth Vader’s helmet. Finn is characterized as a redeemed First Order Stormtrooper who looks like he turns from the dark side to the light side throughout the movie.
Although there is so much pandemonium around this trailer leading up the new movie, trailer (like any good trailer would) ultimately leaves the viewers with more questions than answers. At any rate, this is a movie that no Star Wars fan will want to miss. Star Wars: The Force Awakens is set to premier in all theaters December 18, 2015.
