A mysterious Star Wars character, dressed in dark clothing, sits thoughtfully on a futuristic blue and silver bench—evoking the enigmatic presence of DJ from The Last Jedi and inviting guests into the immersive galaxy far, far away.

Not much is known about DJ, a new character in “Star Wars: The Last Jedi,” but Empire has a new photo of actor Benicio Del Toro in character.

“This character could come straight out of a Bob Dylan or Tom Waites song, or even a Dostoyevsky novel,” Del Toro says. “He’s like something out of Dickens; there have been characters like him in all kinds of literature.”

The mysterious DJ appears to fall into a moral grey area, which seems to be a theme for many characters in the upcoming “Star Wars” installment. “He’s like a knife: if you grab him by the blade, he’ll cut you. If you grab him by the handle, he can be very, very useful,” said Del Toro.

An enigmatic Star Wars character clad in dark attire relaxes on a sleek, futuristic blue couch; the word “EMPIRE” appears in the corner, capturing the mysterious vibe of DJ from The Last Jedi and inviting fans into a galactic lounge experience reminiscent of a Disney Parks Star Wars attraction.

“Star Wars: The Last Jedi” hits theaters on December 15.
