The movie gossip website reports inside sources have revealed Darth Vader will make an appearance in the upcoming film. Vader’s alleged appearance in the series may have to do with Carrie Fisher’s daughter being cast in the film.
Fisher’s daughter, Billie Lourd, will play a young Princess Leia, who will allegedly have an encounter with Vader. However, the main villains in “Star Wars: Episode VII” will be Sith Inquisitors, not Sith witches as previous reports have stated.
“The Inquisitors are the villains of Star Wars: Episode VII and the name of the main villain in Star Wars: Rebels,” according to the Latino Review. “They seem to be loosly based on the now-deleted Expanded Universe Inquistors…mixed with the hardended Sith look of Rebels' villain. The Inquisitors are defenders of the Sith Order and they’ve been around for a long time. Just how long is what turns Episode VII’s story on it’s head.”
Indie Revolver has published an image of the alleged Sith Inquisitors. Click here to check out the “Star Wars Episode 7” concept art.
Along with new villain rumors, fan site MakingStarWars.net has released new images of the Tatooine set from “Star Wars: Episode VII.” The production hasn’t confirmed which planets the film will visit nor is the cast isn’t giving up details. (Click here to check out the Tatooine photo).
“Star Wars” cast member Adam Driver recently spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the secretive production. Driver claimed he didn’t have a formal conversation explaining what they could share about the production, but he wouldn’t want to give details even if he could.
“They kind of trusted that I wouldn’t say anything,” Driver told EW. “I’m one of those crazy people, if I’m watching the trailer for a movie and I’m really excited by it, I’ll turn it off because I don’t want to know anything. I want to be surprised because I love that more than knowing anything. I don’t think they felt the need to tell me [to stay quiet].”
“Star Wars: Episode VII” will be released to theaters on Dec. 18, 2015.
