Warwick Davis, a cast member in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," shared two photographs from the production set of the movie. The two photos show the popular characters Darth Vader and Chewbacca. There has been no official confirmation by the producers of the movie that the Sith Lord will appear in the upcoming movie.

Warwick Davis was a guest at the BBC's "One Show." The actor spoke about his experience as a cast member who will now feature in all three trilogies of the "Star Wars" movies. The interview video features a behind-the-scenes footage from the original trilogy.

Warwick Davis was later asked about "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." The actor mentioned that he was not allowed to speak about it but did share two photographs from the production set. He said that he managed to sneak a camera into the production set, even though he was not allowed to do so.

The two photographs only show a small portion of the costume of Darth Vader and Chewbacca. The two photographs may have been presented as a joke by Warwick Davis but the character Chewbacca will certainly be featuring in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." A previous leak from the movie suggested that Darth Vader will also appear briefly in the movie. [Warning: Spoiler Alert]

Fans of the franchise who have watched the original trilogy will remember that Darth Vader fulfilled the prophecy of bringing balance to the Force and died during the process. A report by LatinoReview revealed that the character will appear in a flashback scene in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."

According to the report, the flashback scene will serve the purpose of introducing the new villain in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." The new villain is reported to be a defender of the Sith order and the flashback scene will reportedly show the villain serving Darth Vader.

An image of the new villain in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" also features in the report. The image shows a hooded cyborg villain with beaming red eyes, holding a broken helmet of Darth Vader. The report talks about the flashback scene being important to ensure continuity from the original trilogy and also suggests that the animation TV series from the franchise will also be important to fill the gaps in the storyline.
