Star Wars: The Force Awakens Enlists Stars of The Raid

Twitch is reporting that three cast members of Gareth Evans’ The Raid and The Raid 2 will appear in the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Series star Iko Uwais (who plays Rama in both films) will reportedly appear alongside Yayan Ruhian (Mad Dog in the first “Raid,” and Prakoso in its sequel) and Cecep Arif Rahman (“The Assassin” from The Raid 2‘s kitchen fight).

Though the outlet is unsure what roles they will play in the film, it’s possible they will serve as fight choreographers for the film, a role that both Uwais and Ruhian filled on both “Raid” films and the upcoming Beyond Skyline.

Also starring Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Max von Sydow, Lupita Nyong’o, Gwendoline Christie, Crystal Clarke, Pip Anderson, Christina Chong and Miltos Yerolemou, the J.J. Abrams-directed film will debut in theaters on December 18, 2015.
