A new report about “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” reveals the name of the actor who will be playing the role of a cyborg villain in the movie. Previous leaks from the movie had shown a cyborg holding a shattered helmet of Darth Vader. [Warning: Spoilers Alert]

The first official trailer of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” revealed one of the villains in the movie to be a hooded figure with a cross guard lightsaber called Kylo Ren. According to a report by MakingStarWars, the character will appear as a cyborg in the movie. Adam Driver is said to be the actor who will be playing this role.

Fans of the franchise who have been following the leaks from the upcoming movie will remember a report by IndieRevolver that showed a hooded robotic figure holding Darth Vader’s shattered helmet. The “tall and thin” character was reported to be a Sith Inqusitor at that time, but the actor playing the role was not revealed in the report.

According to the new report, the image of the cyborg looking at the Darth Vader helmet is from a scene that takes place on a Star Destroyer in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” The report speculates that the villain will reveal his plans in this scene, as the scene apparently involves the character talking to the helmet.

The scene on the Star Destroyer is supposedly a cut scene and is said to be placed in the middle of an action sequence involving the characters Finn and Rey. The action sequence is a space battle, in which Finn and Rey fight off a few TIE fighters. John Boyega plays the role of Finn in the movie and Daisy Ridley plays the role of Rey.

The report also talks about Andy Serkis playing the main villain in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” The name of the villain has not been revealed. The character is said to appear three to four times in the movie and his main focus is to ensure the others are following his orders and keeping them on schedule, the way Darth Sidious did in the original trilogy.
