10 Star Wars: The Force Awakens Characters That We Can’t Wait To See In Action

Star Wars: The Force Awakens is getting closer and closer, and despite the movie's breathtaking trailers and some very revealing magazine features, much of the J.J. Abrams helmed release remains a complete mystery. Following the disappointing prequels, the pressure is on Disney to really deliver with this new trilogy, especially as upcoming spinoffs like Rogue One and the Han Solo origin story have made it clear that Star Wars is actually going to become a yearly fixture in cinemas moving forward.

Maz Kanata

Lupita Nyong’o’s motion capture character has been one of the most intriguing parts of Star Wars: The Force Awakens for a while now, but it was the recent TV spot which really increased our interest in Maz Kanata.

J.J. Abrams has confirmed that Maz (described as “pirate” who is thousands of years old) is the alien on the poster for the movie, and also revealed that her eyes do indeed have some sort of powers.

That and how those relate to Rey is obviously a very good reason to be intrigued by what the character is going to bring to the movie, and with many fans convinced that Maz is going to take on a Yoda like role in The Force Awakens, she’s definitely someone to keep an eye on.
