First Look At THE RAID Cast In STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS
All the way back in January we found out that a trio of actors from The Raid movies had been cast in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and now thanks to some images from one of the tie-in books we have our first look at the characters played by Iko Uwais and Yayan Ruhian...
Here we have our first official look at Kanjiklub gang members Tasu Leech (Yayan Ruhian) and Razoo Quin-Fee (Iko Uwais) from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The smaller image is probably the character played by their fellow The Raid ass-kicker Cecep Arif Rahman, but obviously it's difficult to verify that.
We don't know a whole lot about these guys, but the Kanjiklub are apparently a notorious band of intergalactic criminals so expect them to play an antagonistic role towards Rey, Finn, Han and the others. It's also reasonable to assume that they'll be putting their considerable martial arts abilities to use in some capacity in the film.
Starring Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver, Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Gwendoline Christie, Lupita Nyong’o and Max von Sydow, Star Wars: The Force Awakens is set to be released on December 18th, 2015.
