To everyone who has seen this movie you probably thought this was just another weak minded trooper who gave into force mind tricks easily. But actually this trooper is a major Hollywood actor out of the costume that is. This troopers unknown identity is Daniel Craig who plays in the recent 007 movies which is pretty cool when you think about. By what I understand J.J wanted a cameo that fans will remember so what's a better cameo than a First Order Stormtrooper. So I guess J.J offered this role to Daniel Craig and he accepted the role thankfully. It's been rumored that this particular trooper could appear in EP. 8 and 9 which I don't know if that's true but it would be pretty cool. Okay now what I do know is how this scene played out in the movie which all you should know by now I'll give you a little "backplay" to explain how this scene is portrayed. So Rey (Daisey Ridley) get captured on Takodana by Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) and the First Order because she saw the map from BB-8 that leads to Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) so in Kylo's opinion they didn't need the droid not knowing she has the force. So the First Order takes her back to Starkiller Base and Kylo interrogates her and tries to get the map out of her mind but Rey resists him by using her force ability against him and basically gets in his head and tells him he'll never be as strong as Darth Vader (James Earl Jones). Of course by this point Kylo is really confused so he goes to Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis) and tells him what's going on with Rey and snoke tells Kylo if what he said was true then bring her to him, which by the way was a lot like The Emperor (Ian McDiarmid) with Luke to Vader in the original trilogy. Anyway when Kylo and Snoke are talking about what to do with Rey, Rey is still in the interrogation room and a Stormtrooper is there on guard and Rey is trying her best to get out of the chair she's locked in then she thinks and tells the trooper you will remove these restraints and leave this cell with the door open and that got the trooper's attention and he answers with what did you say? So Rey says it again and then he walks over to her without saying a word and then he's angry and says I'll tighten those restraints scavenger scum. Then it cuts to a scene showing Kylo walking to the room to add suspense. So Rey is staring into the trooper's eye and says it for a third time and then the trooper leans back and repeats what Rey has commanded and he frees Rey without knowing what he's doing then he walks to the door and opens it and right when he's about to walk out Rey adds another command by saying and you'll drop your weapon and he repeats back and the F-11D slams on the ground and Rey waits till he's out of the room picks up the blaster and runs off. Many people may just forget about this trooper but thanks to him Rey was freed even before Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), and Finn (John Boyega) could even get to the interrogation room. So two thumbs up to JB-007 (a number given to him by fans).
