Reason No.1

Luke Skywalker has been missing ever since the first trailer was released. Since then, people have not seen him in anything related to "Star Wars." No trailer, no new poster, and no new toys.

Reason No.2

The previous teaser, which was released last August showed Finn wielding a blue lightsaber. Based on this scene, the lightsaber could be owned by Anakin and people know that it was also passed down to Luke Skywalker.

Reason No.3

"I think that there are two sides to the Force. Both sides, arguably, would see themselves as the hero of their story, and I think that applies here." This was the statement made by JJ Abrams to the Entertainment Weekly.

However, he could not be Luke Skywalker too. Adam Driver will be playing the character of Kylo Ren. There are many photos that show Adam portraying the bad character. Apart from that, he has done several interviews as well with the other cast of "Star Wars" to promote The Force Awakens.

According to Abrams, "Kylo Ren is not a Sith". With all the stormtroopers around him, he definitely look like a bad guy. He may look like a villain, but his real motives are still be seen, Empire reported.
