The Force Awakens Panel kicked off Star Wars Celebration today, and I watched it via StarWars.com !
We saw appearances from JJ Abrams, R2D2, BB-8, the new cast and finally the original cast!
Of course, no super secrets were revealed but everyone was obviously excited to be a part of the project and to feel the excitement of the fans.
Here are some fun things I took away from the panel:
- new technology was incorporated throughout the movie: including the amazing BB-8
- we will be introduced to a new planet called Jakku
- the Stormtroopers have an updated look
- the classic Princess Leia's buns will be gone
- look out for new designs in astromech droids!
- and of course, the newest trailer!
It was good see the new cast, but chilling to see our original favorites. And to see that the cast truly appreciates the ultra-passionate fans (UPFs) was heartwarming. Mark Hamill said it best, we were "more than fans, we were family".
Everyone has a Star Wars Story... I watched a New Hope with my dad and cherish those memories. And I'm looking forward to the new movies and many more memories to come!
What is your Star Wars Story?
