Star Wars VII Characer Reveal - Andy Serkis as Supreme Leader Snoke

Well, today it was finally announced who Andy Serkis would be playing in Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. Serkis will fill the role of Supreme Leader Snoke.

Now, to me, this sounds like the name of a villain, and my prediction of what this character will be is the new "Emperor" figure for the new trilogy, acting as leader of the Empire - now known as the First Order - and being the one who took over after the death of Palpatine in Return of the Jedi.

Serkis has somewhat of a history of roles as secondary villains in movies, and this Supreme Leader could be the one signing Kylo Ren's cheques.

These are just my few thoughts on this reveal, and I think bringing Serkis onto a project of this magnitude was an excellent move. I'll probably talk about more Star Wars stuff in the future so stay tuned.

Godspeed, and may The Ancients watch over your travels.
