Our 10 Favorite Characters From Star Wars: The Force Awakens

After more than three years of waiting, Star Wars: The Force Awakens is finally here! Since being released, everyone is talking about this return to a Galaxy Far, Far Away and what's next for the franchise. Before we get too wrapped up in the future though, it's important to focus on the amazing work J.J. Abrams did with Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and that obviously includes the new characters he introduced to this world and the very different versions of the original ones who made their return here.

As much as I now despise Kylo Ren, there’s no denying the fact that he’s a fascinating and emotionally complex character and one I would certainly like to spend a lot more time with moving forward. While he may have now turned his back on the Light for good, you could tell that he really was being torn apart before making the decision to murder his father.

Ben Solo may be devoted to following in Darth Vader’s footsteps, but he’s far from a ripoff of that villain, something which is evident from the fact that he essentially throws temper tantrums. Despite that childishness, Kylo is well in touch with the Force and displays some frightening abilities, and with Supreme Leader Snoke set to complete his training, his journey to the Dark Side has only just begun.
