Game of Thrones, Hunger Games, and Star Wars. Jeez, Gwendoline Christie (and her agent) is killing it. Hopefully Natalie Dormer can make the trifecta too at some point.

Christie is going to be in the Hunger Games as well? Wonderful!

Also, yes...more Natalie Dormer in everything, please.

Supposed plot details have leaked for Episode VII. Read at your own risk!:


John Boyega's role


Late last night Badass Digest reported that multiple sources have told them John Boyega is playing a stormtrooper who goes AWOL and teams up with Daisy Ridleys character. They add, Boyega as storm trooper is the single most confirmed piece of news Ive ever written about in terms of sheer volume of independent sources who agree.

Wait, so stormtroopers arent clones anymore? WHAT IS THE MEANING OF TH

Well, okay. (Yes, Im aware Stormtroopers started being cloned from multiple templates, but I still have doubts that Boyega is playing a run-of-the-mill clone. His aim will probably be too good.)

This rumor comes about a day after Badass Digest revealed a description of the first 20 minutes of the movie, a description which they later said was confirmed by multiple sources.




The first 20 minutes of Episode VII


This rumor comes about a day after Badass Digest revealed a description of the first 20 minutes of the movie, a description which they later said was confirmed by multiple sources.

Imagine the standard Star Wars crawl, and when it ends the camera pans up to the stars. But instead of a spaceship zooming into frame we see a hand! A severed hand, tumbling through space. A severed hand gripping a light saber.

That hand falls onto a desert planet, [Ed.- they later said this is NOT Tatooine] where it is discovered by characters who will be our heroes. One is Daisy Ridley. The other is John Boyega, who is playing someone trying to change his path in life (again, Im keeping it vague here). They recognize the light saber as a Jedi relic and decide to return it to the proper people.

Their quest takes them off world, and they meet up with Han Solo and Chewbacca, who arent flying around in the Millenium Falcon anymore but are piloting well, that could be a spoiler. Ill leave it. Anyway, Han and Chewie recognize the light saber as Lukes, and they say they havent seen their friend in thirty years, since the events of Return of the Jedi.

So begins a quest to find the missing Jedi Master. Meanwhile, on an ice planet, nefarious forces are building a super weapon, one capable of destroying not planets but entire solar systems.

...

Badass Digest also says theyre hearing good things about the action, the characters, and how the actors are performing. Their sources were especially impressed with one actor, saying John Boyega owns this movie, which, if youve seen him in Attack the Block, is no surprise.

Relating to Cloudy's "first 20 minutes of Episode VII" spoiler (or fake spoiler, or whatever):

"Meanwhile, on an ice planet, nefarious forces are building a super weapon, one capable of destroying not planets but entire solar systems."

- I know it will NOT be this, because a) they'll make their own stuff up, and b) ice planet? ...but honestly my mind immediately leapt to this little beauty.
