Director J.J. Abrams is slowly revealing details for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Two weeks ago, the first trailer hit the Internet and set the blogosphere aflame. And now Entertainment Weekly has a list of character names.

Oscar Isaac’s X-Wing pilot is named Poe Dameron. Kylo Ren is the villain with the cross guard lightsaber in the trailer (which actor will play this bad guy has yet to be revealed). And John Boyega’s character, the one dressed in the stormtrooper uniform at the beginning of the trailer, is named Finn (no last name…yet).
