When Taika Waititi takes over Star Wars he'll be leading a fresh project detached from shackles of George Lucas' accomplishments and the Skywalker family, so while fan service may be a given, it'll be there in a way that doesn't compromise storytelling. They were never really given the chance to perform in a way that could have caused fans to love them as much as the old guard. The need to bring closure to the Skywalker storyline and tying all those loose ends put even bigger constraints on developing Finn and Poe as long-lasting characters within the Star Wars universe, thus practically killing any chance of having any of these characters (including Daisy Ridley's Rey) return in the future.

In any case, for all the promise in having a completely original story, one of the higher notes for this new Star Wars was how well it transitioned the old costumes and aesthetics into the modern CGI era with producers being quite keen on actually building as many props as possible to keep that aura of “realism” George Lucas’ films had. The thing that was most exciting about The Force Awakens at that time was the possibility of an entire generation of Jedi and Sith popping up in the faraway galaxy with just a touch of familiarity from the old Rebel Alliance. Even though Force Awakens trailers show Han Solo and his first mate Chewbacca returning to their iconic starship the Millennium Falcon (after a seemingly lengthy absence) and advising Finn and Rey, Lucasfilm hasn't revealed much of Han Solo's role in The Force Awakens. Almost half a year later, when trailer two came out Lucasfilm leveled up that experience by having Luke Skywalker serve as the narrator who very surely felt the flow of force in one of the newcomer characters and confirming Han Solo and Chewbacca’s return.
