Star Wars: The Force Awakens Trailer Breakdown - 25 Things You Need To See
23. And He's A Rogue Stormtrooper
The long standing rumour around Boyega was that he'd be playing a Stormtrooper gone rogue, and the trailer seems to confirm this. He's decked out in the trademark white armour and, judging by his disorientation, lack of helmet and sweaty face, things aren't going his way. Note that despite being on a desert planet, he's not wearing the special Sandtrooper armour from the original Star Wars, hinting he's been on the run for a while. Will his departing the former Empire (Imperial Remnant?) be central to the plot, or just his character arc?
