So, that definitely was Oscar Isaac in the trailer for Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens then (well done if you were on of the few who spotted that early on). In the video above, the actor talks about the process of joining the cast of the movie - it didn't take J.J. Abrams long to pick him by the sound of it - and his excitement about being part of this project is clear to see. Hopefully we'll soon get to hear from Isaac about his next role as Apocalypse in Bryan Singer's X-Men: Apocalypse

Starring original cast members Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker and franchise newcomers, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Gwendoline Christie, Lupita Nyong’o and Max von Sydow, Star Wars Episode VII is set to be released on December 18th, 2015. 379 days to go!

I think the more pressing question is who IS Trevor Slattery?

Where has this doubt come from? I've seen multiple people say that Oscar wasn't in the trailer and now it's gotta be confirmed by the actor himself? His face is the screencap!

Wow, it seems as if this Isaac didn't even read for the role. He implied J.J. cast him two weeks after a phone conversation. Either J.J. was able to read Isaac's personality really over a phone call, or Disney knew Isaac was a hot up-and-coming actor and said "[frick] it".

Cool man. At first I didn't recognize him cause He always has facial hair. But after the second time I was like that's STANDARD. badass.

I usually recognize him by his face or beard, but it was hard to tell that was him in the trailer.

"Most of us..."??? I don't know about that.

I recognized him immediately.

The voice over was a bit more ambiguous, but then again I didn't bet anyone.

@RamonSuarez lol : )

@Melkaticox I would honestly like a confirmation on the Sith. They are my favorite characters(besides the emperor) in the SWU. Im just really hoping its not adam driver. I mean cool if they cover up his face and make him the new VADah than thats cool. but (POTENTIAL SPOLIERS)


he was in set pics as a rebel pilot and the leaks say hes force sensitive and turns to the darkside. So Thats what I want confirmed.

still crossing my fingers that its Gleeson whos the Sith He is becoming one of my favorite actors.

Lol the fact that he had to confirm that that was him doesn't surprise me. I forgot where, but some dumbass was set on that being Luke piloting the ship.

Oscar Isaac on playing an X-WING pilot in STAR WARS EPISODE VII Would have generated less predictable and annoying comments.
Meteor

But the real question, Is Mark Hamill playing Luke?
