Alongside the first international television spot for the forthcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the folks at Entertainment Weekly have released a ton of new pictures and character details. Here’s a breakdown of the revelations (minor spoilers follow):
- There’s more to the character names than we’ve seen thus far
- Here’s our first glimpse of Domhnall Gleeson as baddie General Hux
- Vader fanatic Kylo Ren wasn’t born with that name; Ren is an honorific, like “Darth,” marking him as one of the Knights of Ren
- Who are the Knights of Ren? Nobody’s saying
- One scene from the film was captured in IMAX and will only be fully viewable in official IMAX theaters
Director J.J. Abrams told EW that fans can expect another trailer in the fall, closer to the film’s release. The Force Awakens hits theaters on December 18th.
