SPOILER: Last Name of a Main STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS Character Revealed
You did read the headline, right? This post does contain a possible major SPOILER. With that second warning out of the way, I'll get right into it.
Shortly after the casting for J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Force Awakens was announced and we learned that John Boyega was cast In the film, an acquaintance of mine that works in the entertainment industry told me Boyega would be playing Lando Calrissian's son. It was so early in development, though, that I didn't really believe him. Then when it was revealed that his name was Finn and that he was a Stormtrooper, I buried that Calrissian rumor in the back of my mind... until today.
In a recent description on Amazon for a Finn puzzle, it reveals that Finn actually might be the son of Lando. Here's a screenshot of that puzzle description:
So Finn Calrissian... From what I've seen in the trailer he's not as cool or smooth-talking as his old man was! Billy Dee Williams played Lando in the original films, and there have been rumors that he might show up in Episode VIII. If Finn really is Lando's son then there might actually be some truth about Williams' appearance in the movie.
Of course, there's a chance that this information could be false so let's treat it as a rumor for now. Apparently third party sellers can write anything they want in the description for their products. In the end, it's safe to say that we are going to see relationship connections between old and new characters in the ongoing story of the Star Wars saga.
