Trio of stars from The Raid reportedly set to appear in Star Wars: The Force Awakens

The cast of Star Wars: The Force Awakens is already bursting at the seams, and according to Twitch we can now add three more names to the credits in The Raid stars Iko Uwais, Yayan Ruhian and Cecep Arif Rahman.

The site goes on to report that no character details are available for the trio, nor has there been any confirmation from Lucasfilm or the actors’ representatives. But, if the casting is true, you’d have to imagine they’ll be putting their explosive martial arts skills to good use…
