Get ready to meet Finn, Rey, Kylo and Poe. No… they’re not Teletubbies, they’re the characters we’ll be meeting in 2015’s new Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens, produced by J.J. Abrams.
The names of the characters played by John Boyega (Finn), Oscar Isaac (Poe) and Daisy Ridley (Rey) were revealed via some retro style playing cards in a nod to the 1970’s style cards that were floating about when the original movies were released. We also learned the name of that soccer-ball like droid too, it’s BB:8, and the Sith Lord: Kylo.
In terms of clues there’s little there. Perhaps the biggest one is that John Beyega’s character, Finn, is said to be ‘on the run’, which would agree with suspicions of fans that he was not really a stormtrooper, but disguised as one.
