'Star Wars Episode 9': Snoke may return

Will Snoke (Andy Serkis) return in “Star Wars: Episode 9”? It may seem improbable after the events in “The Last Jedi,” but Serkis has a different view. In a recent interview, the actor teased the possibility of his character’s return in the final instalment of the new trilogy.

The sudden end of Snoke’s life in “The Last Jedi” left many fans wanting, especially since the films have hardly explored his background. The death meant that the only way to learn more about the character can be through franchise novels, games or TV shows.

However, in a recent interview, Serkis suggested that the character may not yet be done in the films. Speaking with Slashfilm, the actor pointed out that anything is possible in the fictional world of “Star Wars.” Snoke, the actor pointed out, could be brought back or “resuscitated.”

Serkis admitted that the way his character met his end in the film seemed right in terms of story. However, the actor added that the death has led to disappointment among fans hoping to see more.

Whether or not Snoke returns in the final film in the new trilogy depends on J.J. Abrams, who will be writing the script and directing the movie. So far, Serkis has not been included in the list of returning cast members.

There are many ways in which Abrams can bring back Snoke. For one, the highly deformed character has been around for a long time. He has seen the rise and the fall of the Empire, which means there may be a secret to his long life that can be explored in the next film. The other less-likely option is to bring him back as a Force Ghost.
