Brilio.net/en - After being skeptical for quite some time, we could finally rest assured after the director of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens, J.J. Abrams directly confirmed the involvement of Iko Uwais and Yayan Ruhian on the strife of light and dark side.
No wonder, their names was only mentioned as a rumor on IMDB. Moreover, both actors never really confirmed their involvement on this movie and even their characters did not appear in most of the trailers.
Not only confirming their appearance, Abrams also praised how incridible those Indonesian actors were.
God, I wondered if the dudes fromThe Raidwould be available?And to my amazement, and they were willing, and they were incredible. They showed up and did a terrific job, said Abrams from the Star Wars: The Force Awakens press release.
Seen on the Force Awakens tie-in book, Iko and Yayan are playing Kanjiklub Gang Members where Yayan Ruhian is Tasu Leech, the gangs leader, and Iko Uwais as Razoo Quin-Fee. It is also speculated that Cecep Arif Rahman, the third actor from The Raid would also appear in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
