Star Wars fans are breathing a sigh of relief after the producer of the new film confirmed the goofy, unpopular Jar Jar Binks will not be making a return.
Director JJ Abrams and the cast have remain tight-lipped over what happens in The Force Awakens but Kathleen Kennedy was prepared to say what won't be happening.
"Jar Jar is definitely not in the movie," Kennedy said to applause and cheers at a news conference.
An online poll of movie fans in 2006 found Binks to be the most annoying film character of all time.
Audiences of the new film also won't see any Ewoks, the furry creatures from 1983's Return of the Jedi, Kennedy said.
"New Trailer Awakens Star Wars Fever"
"That's because Harrison insisted on it," she joked, referring to Harrison Ford, who returns to play Han Solo.
The Force Awakens is the seventh episode in the sci-fi franchise created by George Lucas.
