STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS doesn't need any more promotion as it passes $1 billion dollars only after nine days of release, but that didn't stop the stars and filmmakers from premiering the new film in the STAR WARS saga in China where the film had not yet opened. Director J .J. Abrams, executive producer Kathleen Kennedy and stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyeg, R2-D2 and the newest favorite BB-8 joined fans in Shanghai in premiering the new movie. Take a look at the photos including Kathleen Kennedy's cool Captain Phasma bag.
