Numerous rumours are currently being thrown about on who will play who in the latest installment in the Star Wars franchise. Here's what Latino Review had to say on the most recent rumoured names:

  • Jesse Plemon

  • Jesse Plemons’s role could be significant as it may span the entire new trilogy.

  • Adam Driver

  • Adam Driver? There’s nothing on him. Though maybe they’ll want to capitalize on his real-life military background and make him a militant leader of some kind?

  • Michael Fassbender

  • Michael Fassbender may be up for the role I reported back in November- a military man in his 40s, with a description along the lines of Matt Damon in Elysium.

  • Hugo Weaving

  • Hugo Weaving is said to be up for the role of an Imperial Commander.




    That was all Latino Review had to say about the latest casting rumours but they weren't finished there. They also claim to have news of a new member of the Kenobi family, who is set to be joining the films cast:

    Rumor has it there’ll be a new Kenobi in the film. It would appear Obi-Wan may have fathered a child before he ended up a pile of clothes on the floor. The production is seeking a multi-racial girl in her twenties to play his granddaughter, allegedly.

    How about not putting a possible spoiler in the title/description of a post?

    And maybe stop pretending that adding a question mark magically doesn't make it a [frick]ing spoiler.

    I know Obi-Wan had romances with women before everything went to shit in RotS, but this whole thing about him fathering a child on Tatooine or some shit would be totally out of character.

    I wonder if they'll go the Clone Wars route and say that Obi-wan had a child with Duchess Satine. He said he would've left the Order for her.

    I want to see ruthless Sith too. None of this wimpy Hayden crap.
