Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 10 Things We Need To See In The Next Trailer

8. A Look At The Other New Characters

The trailers have largely been focused on the new characters who'll be carrying this latest trilogy forward for the next few years, with Daisy Ridley's Rey, John Boyega's Finn, and Adam Driver's Kylo Ren all featuring pretty heavily. Yet such is the size of the cast that there's a few we haven't had a proper look at yet. 

Domhnall Gleeson's General Hux has been unveiled, but only in a still. He manages to cut a menacing and glowering figure in that image, so it'd be fun to see just what he's like in action. 

Then there's those whose roles haven't been confirmed, or appearances kept under wraps. It's understandable that they'd want to keep the motion capture work on Andy Serkis and Lupita Nyong'o under wraps, but it'd still be great to just get a glimpse of their characters, Supreme Leader Snoke and Maz Katana respectively, while they don't need to give away Max von Sydow's role or name to at least let us have a look him.
