'Star Wars: Episode 8' theory: Supreme Leader Snoke location and another big death

After getting a tease of Supreme Leader Snoke, the fans are expecting to see the villain in the flesh in “Star Wars: Episode 8.” A new theory looks at the possible location of the new villain, and the possibility of another big character’s death.

[Spoiler alert]

Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis) only appeared in hologram in “The Force Awakens.” Towards the end of the movie he ordered both General Hux (Domhnall Gleeson) and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) to come to him. But, the question remains – where is he?

In a video posted on the YouTube channel of Mike Zeroh, it states that previous script leaks have revealed the name of Snoke’s planet to be Ragnacta, and that he is inside a life support system. Mike believes that the villain is physically incapable of leaving this place.

Mike points out that towards the end of “The Force Awakens” when Hux is informing Snoke about the collapse of the Star Killer base, the villain appears to be out of breath.

In another video Mike takes inspiration from the art book of the first movie to speculate about the throne room of Snoke in “Star Wars: Episode 8.” The picture of Emperor Palpatine’s chair submerged under water gave Mike the idea of Snoke’s base being under water. Mike would like to see this base called as Snoke’s Abyss.

As far the look of the villain is concerned, Mike believes that Snoke will look a lot shorter than his image in the hologram, and will be physically a lot weaker in person.

Mike also believes that the big death in “Star Wars: Episode 8” will be that of General Hux (Domhnall Gleeson). He expects this to happen in the first act of the film, when Hux and Kylo Ren go to meet Snoke on his base.
