With just two weeks before the much awaited "Star Wars: Force Awakens" release in theaters on Dec. 18, spoilers and teases are already coming one after another. What makes it all the more exciting is that they come from the very own actors themselves, even veteran, Harrison Ford.
Another teaser was also courtesy of Oscar Isaac. Speaking with People Magazine, Isaac revealed that X-wing pilot, Poe Dameron, "has been sent on a mission by a certain princess." He also described his character to the "best frickin' pilot in the galaxy." But the most anticipated secret out of all the things he revealed to People, was that Poe and Finn's "fates are intertwined."
Ford, meanwhile, sent fans into a total frenzy when he seemed to have dropped a super major spoiler about "Star Wars: Force Awakens." The actor took part in a Twitter Q&A with fans, held on Friday. One fan asked him about his most favorite action scene. His answer was: "the sword fight with Rey and Kilo Ren. Fantastic visual storytelling."
According to E! Online, Ford was one among the exclusive group who has watched the film before its release. He watched the film with Steven Spielberg and selected Disney executives.
Lucasfilm, meanwhile, debuted a new poster on Dec. 5. It also released a new "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" featurette that gives fans glimpse of what took place behind the scenes while filming. The featurette was shown at the Comic Con Experience in Brazil.
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is directed by JJ Abrams and is based on a screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan, Michael Arndt and Abrams himself. Aside from Ford and Isaac, the film stars Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Lupita Nyong'o, Andy Serkis, Domhall Gleeson, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and Max Von Sydow. Kathleen Kennedy, Bryan Burk and Abrams are producing, with Tommy Harper and Jason McGatlin serving as executive producers.
The synopsis from Lucasfilm said the "Star Wars: Force Awakens" is set 30 years after the events of "return of the Jedi." It features a new generation of swashbuckling heroes and shadowy villains, as well as the return of fan-favorite smugglers, princesses and Jedi.
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" will be followed by "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" on Dec. 16, 2016. "Star Wars: Episode VIII" follows on May 26, 2017 and the "Han Solo" anthology movie on May 25, 2018.
