While we know who the returning actors are as McGregor and Hayden Christensen, who is returning as Darth Vader, there are still those whose roles in the series have yet to be revealed. Today at least we got an idea of who Game of Thrones star Indira Varma would play thanks to more sneaky footage on set.
The images, which appeared on Instagram over the weekend, strongly suggest that Indira Varma She will be on the dark side of the series, as she appears to be dressed as an Imperial officer. The images that were previously released showed the character on set, but because they were blurry and the actor wearing a mask, it was difficult to discern who he really was. The new images clarify the matter, leaving no room for doubt that it is Varma who was seen in the previous photos, and that as suspected based on where in the franchise.

With Hayden Christensen getting his first real chance to play Darth Vader, who was briefly seen in the final moments of Revenge of the Sith, and rumors that a young Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa might have a little appearance, there’s a lot to look forward to.

I felt like I was 6 again or something, because I’m so close to one and it freaked me out, you know? So crazy. So I asked someone,” Were there Stormtroopers in my movies? Because I don’t think I’ve ever seen a real Stormtrooper before. “They were like,” No, they weren’t Stormtroopers; they were clones. “And Jawas, I had another scene with a little Jawa.”
