As you can see, little known actor Sam Carr is listed as a "Padawan", a good indication that Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens will include a New Jedi Order (flashbacks to the prequel era are also possible). Like the rest of those listed above, his role will more than likely be a very small one, so it could be that there will be a number of Padawans in the movie! What Luke Skywalker's involvement will be remains to be seen, but this would follow the Expanded Universe and may go some way in debunking a lot of the ridiculous rumours surrounding his involvement in the movie. What do you guys think? Hopefully we'll learn more when the trailer reaches us tomorrow...

Guys,does anyone know how to post youtube videos in the comment section?

ThedamnBatman - 11/27/2014, 2:14 PM

@McFarlaneFan

Yoda probably didn't anticipate that there'd be an episode 7 to come out when he said that

@LastofKrypton

All you need to do is go to the youtube website (not mobile), open a video, click share, then click embed, and copy and paste the embed code into the comment. If you have any issues, just post the link and Ill take care of it for you.
