    Lupita was not at the pinewood set. However I have heard from the time I was on set that she is playing a mocap character on Tatooine.

    Yeah, they kinda had me at Rey possibly being Luke's daughter (I'm a sucker for any of the rare 'leaks' that suggest it), but it conflicts with Gleeson being his son (Unless Rey isn't a natural brunette or Gleeson dyed his hair/is wearing a brown wig for the role).

    I don't buy it. Everyone being related to OT characters is dumb. Plageuis as the villain? Sounds like the poster is just playing off fanboy hopes and the debunked old title "the ancient fear".

    Why would the master kill his apprentice at the end of the film? What a dumb way to get rid of the main villain from TFA.

    So much of this sounds like previous rumors. Even the language of Luke being a "crazy old wizard" has been around since Nov....

    I'm just going to repost what I said elsewhere:

    I read it. Not to completely dismiss it but it looks like a round up of rumors and speculation. Also while there are practical effects and sets almost everyone one of them will have some green screen for a background so 6 green screen sounds like pure bunkum.(This is my biggest red flag)

    Also Plaguies is dead. Ask @@TIDMADT

    P.S. A thread for this? Really? This guy has no history no record and no account. It should have been left in the General Star wars rumor section and that's it.

    Right. Especially when the apprentice is the son of two of the OT 3 which would set up family conflict in the future film(s). If it was some random as the apprentice, I could see it.

    I also felt the same about it being a 'roundup of rumors and speculation'. It was one of the reasons I (And a few other people) never believed Spoilerman in the first place.

    I don't have any issue with Plageuis killing any body off . . . he can bring them back from the dead if he chooses.

    Would be one helluva strong hold over an apprentice. Whenever you get pissed off at them you kill em and then bring them back. The ole build them up to tear them down.

    Sounds like previous reports. Before the dark times, before MSW had a thread of his own. I like these ideas.

    These leaks reek of somebody trying to take the most popular rumors with fans and repost them. People who work on films don't post stuff on message boards. If they do they clearly want to lose their (probably) dream job.

    I believe 0% of this.

    Well i don’t believe any so called "spoilers”. Most of the time, i don’t even bother with these types of threads. It does sound like a cool story though... if it’s pieced together from other rumors then he did a good job putting it into a narrative. at least to say i enjoyed reading it. :D

    I'm ok with that. Wild speculation can be fun. It is part of why I'm one these forums.

    I don't think Plageuis can bring people back from the dead, in cannon or legends. Plageuis could "manipulate the midiclorians to create life" and "keep other from dying but not himself".

    Semantics aside, just go with that thought - he could appear to kill his apprentice, but stop them from dying. Plausible for Plageius.

    You just cracked the code. Plagueis will kill Kylo to bring him back to life as one of his experiments a la Darth Venamis from the Plagueis novel.
