UPDATE: First Officially Released Images Of 'Snoke' & 'Maz Kanata' From STAR WARS: TFA

Obviously if you've seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens then you've met both Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis) and Maz Kanata (Lupita Nyong'o) already, but EW has now released the first official stills of these mysterious CG characters. Click on to take a look...

They're revealed in all their glory in the movie of course, but below you can see the first official images of two of the mysterious new characters we're introduced to in Star Wars: The Force Awakens: the evil and ancient Supreme Leader Snoke, and benevolent space-pirate Maz Kanata.

Though the two share no scenes in the film, it's believed that they will wind up being the new representatives of the light and dark sides of the force in the Star Wars universe (despite Maz clarifying that she's not actually a Jedi), much like Yoda and Emperor Palpatine before them.






UPDATE: Entertainment Weekly has released another photo of Snoke:



Starring Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver, Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Gwendoline Christie, Lupita Nyong’o and Max von Sydow, Star Wars: The Force Awakens is currently showing in theaters. Do you plan on seeing it multiple time... or are you one of the few that haven't seen it even once yet?

Yep. I'm more than certain he's Darth Plagueis come back, after faking his death and watching what his apprentice was doing.

@ALmazing Thank you for that GIF.

@Scorpion8125 look I don't find it all that annoying. I'm not bothered by it, but I actaully see where you're coming from. Have Finn with a woman of color would be refreshing. Black men can like black women haha. Its possible. Im black, i know. Personally, I think Gugu Mbatha Raw may be his love interest in Episode 8.

@Scorpion8125 Dd you ever think that J.J. picked the actor who was best for the role not the actors based on the color of the skin.

I quite enjoyed Maz, in both portrayal and design.

"Snoke" is a really stupid name for the villain though. Not impressive or intimidating at all. Sounds like it should be some nebbish tight-ass who insists on regulations.

Cool.

Snoke's gotta be Plagueis, which (if they delve into his backstory) will be awesome.

And I'm interested in seeing where they take Maz in the future.

It's implied she's Force sensitive, and apparently in a deleted scene she was seen to use the Force in battle.

I'd be interested in seeing a non-Jedi or non-Sith Force-wielder.

Could open up a lot of possibilities!

@NerdMan I agree, I feel you. Im.
black and my girlfriend is white. I get it. I like the way their relationship is and how it can grow. It's not about color, it's about a connection they have. But, as a black man, and someone apart of the culture, I understand the whole tension of black men not being displayed with balck women this day in age. I can understand the whole subject. The chemistry between Boyega and Ridley is perfect though. Something to capitalize on. It's genuine.


I love Finn's character. Love seeing a brotha beung a badass in a galaxy far far away


Boyega is such a class act too

Plagueis. The only one who tricked death.

Reading the comments and all I see is a race war over what is acceptable for one race to date another. Who cares. Let's talk about why maz looks so much better in that picture then she did in the movie. Her cgi was wonky at best in the movie but looks fantastic in that pic

@dethpillow yeah man I liked Snoke too, just wish we could have seen more, but I guess that comes when Episode 8 releases.

Could Snoke be Darth Bane??? Or a variation of him...

Let's all be real here and admit the CGI characters was shit.

I thought his name was Snort. Like as in, "a line of cocaine".

Snoke's design isn't even that unique for them to resort to CGI. Makeup could have easily worked with him.
