'Star Wars 7' news: Film's first words revealed

 LucasFilm/Disney

J.J. Abrams made it a point to maintain the mystery of the plot of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" to the maximum level before its release date. But the film director decided to be a little generous when he revealed the first words spoken in the movie in his recent interviews.

During his guest appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Abrams revealed that the very first word said in the upcoming installment of the "Star Wars" saga is "This." Then he mentioned in another press interview this weekend that the second word is "will."

However, the filmmaker opted not to reveal the other words to complete the first line of the movie.

ComicBook.com recalled that the first line of "Star Wars IV: A New Hope" was "This will be a day long remembered. It has seen the end of Kenobi. It will soon see the end of the rebellion," which was said by Darth Vader.

Since Kylo Ren reportedly aims to finish whatever Darth Vader began, it would be safe to assume that he will be the one who will utter the first speaking line for the upcoming movie.

Abrams also answered the question about the possibility of having an Easter Egg or bonus feature after at the end credits of the movie during a press conference in Los Angeles. He abruptly replied with "No, there's not."

Meanwhile, film producer Kathleen Kennedy shared several juicy details regarding one of the villains of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" in a previous interview with Los Angeles Times.

According to Kennedy, Captain Phasma ("Game of Thrones" star Gwendoline Christie) is one of the most important villains in the film. "She's an important character, a baddie in the best sense of the word," the film producer said.

Captain Phasma is officially the first female villain in the entire "Star Wars" movie franchise, and she will still be a part of the future installments of the film after the upcoming film.

"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" opens in cinemas on Dec. 18.
