She's been rumored to have been in the running for a role since early this year. We didn't hear anything during filming, so I'd imagine this is a small role in Ep7 that will be more significant in later films.

Remember this name: Maisie Richardson-Sellers. In just over a year, when the 21-year old U.K. native makes her big screen debut in Star Wars: The Force Awakens — a.k.a The Biggest Movie of the Century — you won't be able to escape it.
Director J.J. Abrams is famous for plucking actors from obscurity and casting them in his brainy blockbusters. In Star Wars, he's once again assembled a diverse gang of newcomers, most of whom are destined for superstardom when the film opens next December.

^ Sounds like hyperbole to me. I mean, her casting didn't even warrant an official announcement. How big could the part be? Granted, the trades made it seem like she was close to snagging a lead role last spring... but why keep that under wraps? Even if she was playing Obi-Wan's granddaughter (remember that rumor?), it's not like she's a big name actress whose presence would surprise audiences.

Here's a look at what appears to be the prototypes for six inch scale action figures of Finn, Rey, BB-8, Chewie and (most likely) Kylo Ren:

Yeah, well I guess I'd rather be grey than have a receding hairline. You poor bastard.

When 200 years old you reach, look as good you will not, hmm.
Chewie is 200 years old in Episode IV, so I guess he would be 230 in Episode VII. Wookiees have an average lifespan of 400 years. So if the average human lifespan is 70 years, Chewie would be about 40 in human years.
Chewie's age and wookiee lifespan taken from the Star Wars wikia:

Indie Revolver posted a new piece of concept art of Kylo Ren that matches up pretty well with the helmeted action figure:

If these are movie.figures, that shows he has his normal arm and not the rumored mechanical one.

Yeah I think they were just concepting the cyborg ideas for a number of characters. Last I heard they may not use any of them.

I'm not sure how much (if any) credibility this site has but the images on these "posters" are pretty cool looking to me.
