Star Wars: The Force Awakens Press Conference Reveals What We're Definitely Not Going To See in The Film


The Star Wars: The Force Awakens actors didn't give any spoilers at the top secret Sunday press conference, but know that we're definitely what we're definitely not going to see in the highly-anticipated film coming on Dec. 18.

Here are some things we learned from the press conference:

No post credit scene:

When Director J.J. Abrams was asked if there would be a foreshadowing after credidts scene, he said "No, there's not,".

There will be no Jar Jar Binks:

The much-despised character from the Star Wars prequels will not return for the next film. Producer Kathleen Kennedy announced that info Sunday to "hoots" from reporters.

"Jar Jar is not in the movie," Kennedy said. I was actually hoping that the film would validate the insane Jar Jar Binks is A Sith Lord theory.

No Ewoks:

The Care Bear-looking furry creatures in Return of The Jedi will not return in the new film. Their absence made Harrison Ford grumpy.

"Ewoks are not in the movie. Harrison (Ford) insisted on it," Kennedy said.

"It was in my contract," Ford added, apparently joking.

Abrams was asked if Ewoks were appearing in the film as well, and gave this answer, sure to cause a furry furor.

"Living?" Abrams asked. "Can a man not joke with friends?"

"No," Abrams added. "There are no Ewoks in this film."

Carrie Fisher's dog does not appear:

When a reporter asked Fisher if her dog Gary could ever portray a "long-tongued alien" onscreen, she said,"I wish! I begged J.J. (Abrams). Gary was willing to sleep with J.J."

She did clarify that last part: "I mean nap – but still."

Star Wars: The Force Awakens
