Lupita Nyong’o rocketed to the global stage last year thanks to her brilliant turn in 12 Years s Slave — a role that earned her an Oscar for best supporting actress. Her casting is just one more sign that J.J. Abrams is pulling out all the stops to fill his film with tremendous actors; hopefully they'll be working from a script that matches their talents.
