Star Wars<\/i>: The Force Awakens\u201d\u00a0<\/b>ended the\u00a0<\/b>live-action\u00a0<\/b>presentation with a bang as J.J. Abrams\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>introduced stars John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Oscar Isaac<\/strong> and Lupita Nyong\u2019o<\/strong>. The crowd cheered when John Boyega announced that everyone there would get a Drew Struzan D23 EXPO\u00a0commemorative poster to take home. He’s done posters for all the six previous Star Wars films.<\/p>\n

Then,\u00a0<\/b>in a bringing-down-the house surprise moment, Harrison Ford, who is reprising his role as Han Solo, joined Abrams on stage to wild applause.<\/p>\n
