New images for ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ feature an X-Wing pilot played by Greg Grunberg as well as two classic characters, Nien Nunb and Admiral Ackbar.

The first photo shows a full-body shot of an X- Wing pilot played by Greg Grunberg. He wears pilot costume while holding a helmet in his hand. Grunberg has signed on for three movies, reported Ace Showbiz.

The second image shows a familiar face, Nien Nunb, who served as Lando Calrissian’s co-pilot in the Millennium Falcon.

He looks much the same as his last appearance in the original trilogy. He sports the same black vest over a red jumpsuit and doesn’t seem to have aged.

Another familiar face shown in the third photo is Admiral Ackbar. Unlike Nunb, he sports wrinkles as the indication that he has aged. The two watermarked images of Nunb and Ackbar are taken from real photo session.

It means that the two are real practical creatures and the photos are not made of CGI.

Two other pictures from the movie scenes have also surfaced, showing Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Rey (Daisy Ridley), Finn (John Boyega) and the never-before-seen The General (Domhnall Gleeson).

The first photo shows Solo piloting the Millenium Falcon with Rey and Finn. In the photo, Rey sits in the spot that used to belong to Chewbacca in the original trilogy. The second photo captures The General on the bridge as he’s sending Captain Phasma (Gwendoline Christie) after Finn.
