Mark Hamill talks Episode IX rewrites and security (ew.com)
While on set for History’s Knightfall in Prague, Hamill said he has yet to shoot most of his scenes for the next movie, but some recent script changes were delivered under a rather intense new level of security — and he noted how things have evolved since the first Star Wars movie back in 1977.
“I still have to go over and do [Episode IX],” Hamill said. “Most of the parts I have coming up beside Star Wars are voiceover — there’s one big one, very high profile, I can’t announce now, that I’m really excited about. You know how it is these days, every time you sign NDAs. I remember back when I read the first Star Wars [script], I was like, ‘Wow, that’s the goofiest thing I’ve ever read.’ I gave it to my best friend to read, and I said, ‘What do you think of it?’ He said, ‘It’s really wild, it’s crazy, can I give it to Meredith?’ ‘Sure, go ahead.’ It went around to all my friends. Of course back then nobody cared. Nowadays it’s like working for some secret deep state government organization, like being in the CIA. They’re going to send rewrites over to Prague on this dark red paper that gives you a headache to read.”

Andy Serkis wishes Snoke would have survived (gamesradar.com)
“It was a bit of a shock”, admits Serkis, when asked how he reacted to finding out his character would die, “but I could see exactly why they were going that route, and I think it was a huge surprise in the middle of the film. But I really loved the scene where Rey plays with Snoke. That scene was fantastic. I just wish he’d survived, but who knows?”
Serkis went on to say he would love to return to the part, calling Snoke “a great character”, and it’s very possible that the villain could well make a surprise return in Star Wars 9. The ongoing theory is that the Supreme Leader is, in fact, Darth Plagueis, the Sith Lord who apparently spent his life’s work trying to unlock the secrets to immortality. If that’s true, Kylo Ren’s decapitation might not be so permanent after all…
Speaking of the Kylo in the room, the man who played Ren’s former master had some short but savvy advice from beyond the grave to give to his angsty mentor: “Just chill out a bit.” Wise words, indeed, Darth Serkis, wise words indeed.
