Surprised that Kenny Baker is returning since he didn't appear inside of R2 for Revenge of the Sith at all.

Going by the pic, he's been crated up all this time.

Well, there goes my only reason for watching Girls (save the faint, faint hope that Allison Williams will one day acquiesce and do a nude scene)

That bit of news, plus that photo, is actually making me excited. Damn it. DAMN IT!

Looks great! Ridley/Gleeson as the Solo kids maybe?

Boyega's in the new 24, that'll be my first time seeing him.

Nice! Can't see the pic, though. The site must be getting hammered.

It pops up and down. There is a slight disturbance in the internet.

If Andy Serkis is in all three movies his lifetime box office take could be huge. How many of the LOTR/Hobbit movies will he have appeared in? 5?

So looking forward to Adam Driver as a Sith Lord/or random baddie. Something about his look screams villain to me.

Only four, but he has King Kong and the new Planet of the Apes films too. On the other hand, Orlando Bloom has five LOTR/Hobbit films plus three Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

I've thought about this. Other than fan service, he's not really necessary. We can assume Han and Leia had children and Luke stayed close with them as he trained future Jedi. Chewie was loyal to Han (since the EU is gone, we can assume the Holiday Special never happened and he doesn't have a family back on Kashyyyk) and probably stuck by him all these years. The droids weren't going anywhere.

But where does that leave Lando? He betrayed Han and then redeemed himself by aiding in the rescue and working with the Rebellion to overthrow the Empire. After that? He probably went back to Bespin and resumed his old life. There are ample opportunities for him to pop up down the road and they would be foolish not to use him at some point... but he's not necessary in a film already full of new characters they have to establish.

Actors John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, and Max von Sydow will join the original stars of the saga, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, and Kenny Baker in the new film.
So it's another bunch of unknowns leading off this part of the franchise then, right?
