Star Wars: The Force Awakens Final Trailer - 10 Major Things We Learnt

10. Kylo Ren Tortures Poe Dameron

Of the three new heroic leads, Oscar Isaac is the one we have seen the least of in the build-up to The Force Awakens. We've had a couple of brief shots of him, but nothing that compares to the push both Finn and Rey have received. There's not a great deal more of him here, but what we do see is pretty big. The San Diego Comic-Con behind-the-scenes look featured a shot of Poe Dameron seemingly captured, and now we know exactly who has him: Kylo Ren. Adam Driver's Big Bad is seen torturing him in the trailer, which just further positions both him as this film's Darth Vader, and Dameron as its Han Solo. Furthermore, it appears as though Kylo Ren is actually using the Force to inflict pain and suffering on the pilot, while it also seems as though part of it includes implanting a vision of a planet being destroyed in his head. I really can't wait to see what all this amounts to, and more of Poe in general, because it's my suspicion that Oscar Isaac is gonna steal this movie.
