When the malevolent Supreme Leader Snoke was first introduced in The Force Awakens, most of us assumed him to be the big bad of the trilogy who wouldn’t meet his demise at least until the upcoming Star Wars: Episode IX. But given the subversive intentions of Rian Johnson’s The Last Jedi, perhaps it only figures that this mysterious character was sliced in half before the trilogy’s middle installment had even climaxed.
The death of Snoke was arguably the biggest twist in a film full of unexpected developments, but fans have been theorizing ever since that the villain might not be out the picture after all. To add fuel to the speculation, actor Andy Serkis recently cancelled his appearance at the Keystone Comic Convention this past weekend, and some are taking this as sign that he’s got some Star Wars–related commitments on his plate.
