Confirmed: Teaser Trailer Voice for STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS Is Andy Serkis

When the teaser trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens was released, many fans, including myself, had concluded that actor Benedict Cumberbatch or Max von Sydow was the mysterious voice heard. Collider tweeted early on that it was Andy Serkis. But today we've got confirmation from Good Morning America that it was Serkis.

The image tweeted looks to be from a forthcoming interview with Serkis. I'm still hoping that Cumberbatch is secretly involved in Star Wars because he would make a great Sith.
