    This is Boyega, Ridley & Issacs film. Grunberg as a Skywalker would be enough to make me feel sick.

    Smells like obvious misdirection.

    No, I meant that I would feel sick if Grunberg was a Skywalker. These 3 (Boyega, Ridley, Issac) are the future of Star Wars not Mr Bump. I want to see these three at the movies and am looking forward to this.

    Sorry if I confused anybody :oops:

    Yeah, not feeling a big role, maybe an XWing pilot or something.

    SO exciting! A possible clue for the plot in form of S.W.! Now I can say goodbye to sleeping....and if it´s the actual Star Wars name of my beloved Heroes actor.....I´m speechless..

    So I take it the staff have already checked with Darkstar that the initials SW aren't explicitly used in the shooting schedule...? Otherwise we would have at least some idea who and what his character is/does, right?

    If he's providing comic relief, as the report speculates, I get the impression he may be a character who unwittingly becomes involved in the saga and dragged along on the adventures by being unfortunate enough to be onboard the Falcon when Rey and Finn commandeer it. Maybe a salvage station employee carrying out maintenance on the ship, something of that ilk...
    Stowaway Worker...?

    He's the co-pilot of the Falcon.

    While most of us (us being staff) believe GG basically all but suggested he is a copilot for the Falcon in some shape or form I'm going to as my own speculation on top of it

    He solves the plot hole of "why is the ramp open when they run to it"

    Why originally I envisioned him as a pilot they hire, I thought about the idea of him being a hapless shipyard worker and it has a sense of charm to it

    The ramp was always open in the OT if you think about it,, the only time we saw it closed was when it was flying...

    I agree I don't think hes a skywalker because I don't think Luke has a kid.

    Well... You're not wrong

    I don't think Han was parking the car with the doors wide open and keys in the ignition. If you saw the Falcon with its ramp down people were getting in and out or it was undergoing repairs

    My instincts also tell me we may have seen it ramp up some point on Hoth but why build two Falcons?

    Agreed.
    You would not leave the car open, when everybody wants to get off that planet. It doesn´t look like a well guarded space harbor like Mos Eisly or a landing platform in Bespin.

    Yes we did. And from what we know there are no other people on the Falcon except Rey, Finn, Han, Chewie and BB-8. Darkstar made a suggestion that GG could actually play a photo double of Chewbacca and it would make sense considering the 3 movies deal, the facial hair and spending much time on the Falcon. So what if S.W. is indeed a Stunt Wookie? ;)

    Stunt wookie is Ian Whyte and GG is to small. Actually there are more jobs open on the falcon, a mechanic is desperatly needed and a gunner to. Who said S W is a name?
