Star Wars 7: 10 Biggest Things Revealed From The Set Leaks

4. Adam Driver Is That Sith Bloke

One of the few cast names that has not yet been associated with a character officially is Adam Driver; however, according to leaks, he is playing Kylo Ren. This character begins as an ace rebel pilot with a fascination for the Sith. Set photos do seem to show Driver in the distinctive orange flight gear, lending credence to this claim. These set photos also show a black X-Wing, and it's possible this ship could be Ren's. Assuming this leak is correct, Ren finds he is affected by the increasing power of the Force and changes sides. Opting to become a Sith, he creates a lightsaber and travels to the ice-and-forest world. His lightsaber looks odd because he made it himself with no training. With his journey from the light to the dark, Ren appears to be the opposite of Boyega's character. In the trailer, viewers saw Ren in the icy forest: he pauses and activates his saber, as if ready for battle. If Han is also on this world, is it Han that Ren senses? More intriguingly, why is Ren on that world at all? Is he trying to find Serkis's character?
