Star Wars: Episode VIII - 8 Biggest Reveals From Celebration Europe You Need To Know

1. Kelly Marie Tran Is A Big Secret

When John Boyega came out, his biggest part in the show was jokingly confirming Finn will wake up in Episode VIII and losing his sh*t at Alden Ehrenreich getting to play Han Solo, although it's what he didn't say that was most revealing.

He and Johnson discussed, briefly, Kelly Marie Tran, one of the new key cast additions to the film, and how excited they were to reveal her part... over the next year. Certainly sounds like they don't want to give anything up.

We reported a few months ago that Tran is going to be the film's female Resistance protagonist (based on comments by Boyega himself), and it definitely seems like she's one of the film's big secrets.

Funnily enough, I actually bumped into Kelly while on the convention floor, who was there in secret. A really nice, friendly and outgoing person, this is going to be one of the last times she can walk around a Star Wars event with relative anonymity (with only obssessed media types running up to her).
