Another STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS Character Name Revealed Via Registration
Quote:
We recently found out the names of the new characters glimpsed in the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer (BB-8, Kylo Ren etc), but now Lucasfilm have registered applications for these characters, and a new name has been thrown into the mix. Find out who after the jump..

Lucasfilm/Disney have officially revealed the names of the characters glimpsed in the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer, but what about the new faces we didn't get to see? We know of at least 5 more new additions (Domhnall Gleeson, Andy Serkis, Lupita Nyong'o, Max Von Sydow, and Gwendoline Christie) to the galaxy far, far away that didn't make their presence known in that teaser -- though we did get to hear Serkis' character narrate it. Well now Stitch Kingdom have discovered a new name to add to the list, though we don't have a face to go with it just yet. Among the applications registered for the likes of Kylo Ren, Finn, Poe Dameron and BB-8, was the name Captain Phasma. There are no more details of course, but can we assume this will be the name of one of our mystery characters? Based solely on the rumors we've heard about some of them my money's on Christie, who is said to be Finn's (Jon Boyega) superior officer.

Can't wait for this to come out! I went to the theater for a field trip as a 7th grader to see the original Star Wars, man it was such an experience...there really wasn't anything like it before. I remember going with my Dad to see the OT, then going to see the prequels with my kids. I can imagine I will probably see the last of this trilogy with my grandchildren! My kids loved the prequels....I guess it was more like the video games to them , I hated the prequels so it will be really interesting to see if we can all "come together" to enjoy these neww films.

I went to see the Hobbit last night at my local fake IMAX theater. Then the Force Awakens teaser was shown. WOW it looked phenomenal. Many people cheered before and after. I will be watching this at a real IMAX theater which is about an hour away from me. I wished it was December 2015 already.

No kidding. I happen to know that I'm not going to reach that far. When 100 years old I reach, look as good I will not. Though it's arguable whether I look good now, but that's a different topic.

Ten things Andy Serkis can say about Star Wars: The Force Awakens

1.) His voice was unaltered for the trailer.
We know now that the narrator of The Force Awakens teaser was Serkis’ unspecified character, but at first no one was sure which actor was speaking. Was his voice being deliberately masked? “That is the character,” Serkis says, adding that the gravelly, ominous voice is entirely organic. “There’s no digital manipulation. That’s just me.”

2.) Serkis, a pioneer of performance-capture technology, will not play multiple characters in the movie.
The rumor that Serkis will take on more than one part is “not true at all,” Serkis says. “I can say I only play one character.”

3.) Can we safely assume, from that weary voice, that the character has seen some harsh action in the galaxy over the years?
Serkis laughs, and considers what he can reveal. “I have to be very careful about how I answer these questions. The character …” he says, followed by a long pause. “He’s been through some stuff.”

4.) The actor knew those lines would be in the trailer.
It’s true—though Serkis simply didn’t know how large a role his voice would play in those 88 seconds. Apart from the background muttering of droids, his is the only voice that we hear. “Director J.J. Abrams and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy] told me, ‘You’re all over the trailer,’ but I didn’t know what that meant,” Serkis says. “I thought, ‘Oh great, they’re using the voice of the character I play for the trailer. That’s fantastic.’ Not thinking what that would actually translate into.”

5.) Will we see Serkis himself onscreen, or will his character be rendered through performance capture?
“I can’t say a single thing about that. I’m sorry!” Serkis says with a massive grin. “These things will all come out in the fullness of time, I promise.”

6.) Will Serkis’s character lead a “group of unbelievably athletic and acrobatic motion capture characters”?
This report from Jedi News also gets a big laugh out of Serkis – along with a sustained eyeball-roll. “I’m not leading a band of gymnasts or acrobats,” he says.

7.) Did the movie have a different subtitle at one point?
Citing multiple inside sources, Ain’t It Cool News reported over the summer that the title would be The Ancient Fear. Obviously, that proved to be incorrect–but did the title perhaps change? “No, no, it’s always just been called Episode VII to this point,” Serkis says. “Then I knew it was called The Force Awakens. It’s very pertinent.”

8.) Serkis wasn’t present when Harrison Ford broke his leg when a door on the Millennium Falcon malfunctioned.
“No, I wasn’t,” Serkis says. “But I talked to him about it, and it was all dealt with very seamlessly, so it’s all cool. And he’s fully recovered now. And he came back pretty quick.” Were people more cautious around the Corellian freighter after that? “I would think so!” Serkis said.

9.) Spies were all over the set, trying to catch a glimpse of the film.
“People were flying drones over the walls to see what’s going on,” Serkis says. The secrecy is not about wanting to withhold from fans, he added—“it’s about not wanting to spoil anything for anyone. The expectation is massive, and nobody wants to ruin it in any way. I think that’s right. No one wants to, by saying the wrong thing or being misleading, you don’t want to dilute it.”

10.) He’ll be getting an action figure (unless they want an unhappy actor on their hands).
“That, I hope,” Serkis says, crossing his arms. “I’d better.”

"EW: Did the movie have a different subtitle at one point? Citing multiple inside sources, Ain’t It Cool News reported over the summer that the title would be The Ancient Fear. Obviously, that proved to be incorrect–but did the title perhaps change?

SERKIS: “No, no, it’s always just been called Episode VII to this point,” Serkis says. “Then I knew it was called The Force Awakens. It’s very pertinent.”


I called this immediately, because I know the track record of Harry Knowles and Star Wars, and I don't trust a thing he posts. I was on a podcast the week this b.s. "broke", and it's the first thing I said on the show. "Oh, The Ancient Fear? That is such bull#@$%"

The only thing more ancient than the Sith is AICN web design.

Oh thank God, before I watched the video I thought you meant the movie had a little kid IN it instead of introducing the trailer. Memories of seeing Anakin in the Episode One trailer and just knowing I was going to hate him and that he was going to probably ruin the movie flashed into my mind in the few seconds before I watched the vid. The moment was brief, but oh was it terrible...
