Much mystery surrounds the new villain of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, Supreme Leader Snoke.
Now Star Wars theorist Mike Zeroh, who claims he has a source at Pinewood Studios, has revealed supposed new details surrounding Snoke, including a violent scene with him and Kylo Ren.
In his new YouTube video, he says: “[Firstly, next to Snoke’s throne lies a golden staff with an ornate pattern around it. This could be the same object Andy Serkis [who plays Snoke] was holding in the behind-the-scenes photo of The Last Jedi.
“I believe this is the same exact one, even though it wasn’t covered in gold. It was covered in motion capture stuff.”
He continued:“Snoke is obsessed with wealth. He is obsessed with money. He’s a real rich figure in the galaxy and I really do believe he is connected to the casino city of Canto Bight on the planet Cantonica.
“[Secondly] over the throne we see a high-tech metallic structure, which is believed to be what is used to project himself as a hologram.
“A scene was shot between Driver and Serkis at Pinewood of Driver slamming an object into the ground in front of Snoke. This is most likely the helmet he later destroys.
“His helmet is shattered to bits [in the teaser trailer]. Why would Kylo Ren destroy his helmet?
“Well a couple of months ago, according to MakingStarWars.Net, they said that Kylo Ren is trying to prove himself to Snoke.”
Zeroh added: “I believe…that [Kylo Ren] doesn’t need a helmet, he doesn’t need a mask, to cover the scar that Rey gave him on Starkiller Base.
“We do know there is going to be a scene between these two, when Snoke actually lectures Kylo Ren about his grandfather, Darth Vader.
“I believe Kylo Ren will learn he doesn’t need to wear a helmet like his grandfather, who had injuries, who needed the helmet.
“Lastly, unlike the Emperor’s throne room, Snoke’s throne room appears to have no windows, but rather holographic displays.”
Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi will be released in UK cinemas on December 14, 2017.
