Even with the amount of media coverage and numerous reports on the upcoming "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," there's still a lot of secrecy going on.
Thanks to Entertainment Tonight, fans will be happy to know more information about the upcoming "Star Wars" installment from Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong'o.
It's no longer a secret that the "12 Years A Slave" star will portray the role of bar owner Maz Kanata, who seems to have a very mysterious past.
According to J.J. Abrams, Maz Kanata "was a pirate for a long time" and "has been a smuggler for a long time and has been running this watering hole for a thousand years. [...] She is the sort of barkeep you go to for help."
Although "The Jungle Book" star didn't intend to spill anything more than that, she accidentally slipped and revealed that she worked with Harrison Ford - who plays Han Solo -- for a scene in the film.
Talking about how she played a computer-generated character affected her acting performance, Lupita Nyong'o said:
"Luckily, because I had been a part of the principal photography, I had the understanding of the spaces that I was in. [...] And then you just have to project Harrison and ... Oh dear! I said something."
After unintentionally spilling the details, the 32-year-old actress immediately became self-conscious of what she had to say with regard to the "Star Wars" film.
"This is the trouble with these interviews," Lupita said while smiling. "I'm not saying anything else."
