Star Wars: The Force Awakens news is coming in by the droves as new footage has dropped courtesy of an international trailer as well as new images of the gang, including Adam Driver’s villain Rilo Kiley Kylo Ren. Forget all that because the first look at Mark Hamill in full Luke Skywalker garb has hit the internet. The alleged behind-the-scenes leaked shot doesn’t reveal any spoilers, just Hamill surrounded by cameras in what seems like a 3D imaging session.

But wait, there's more! Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy revealed to Entertainment Weekly that the Han Solo prequel set for 2018 would star a Yung Solo in his late teens or early twenties. Kennedy said, 

“We don’t want to spend time going back and answering a lot of questions that, quite frankly, I don’t think people want answered… I think the key here is that we are identifying an event or events in Han Solo’s life that gives you some idea of who he is and why he is the character we have all known to love…You can imagine, given who we’ve chosen to come in and direct, it should be very entertaining and funny. Han Solo is the character inside Star Wars that everybody knows has a wit and sense of humor. So that’s what this should be.”

There's bound to be more Star Wars news, or leaks, but for now keep counting down until December 18.
