Richard E. Grant, one of the stars of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, has teased a major character plot twist.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is now little over a week away but that doesn’t mean its stars are finished hyping the movie. From the sounds of it, fans can expect a major plot twist to occur.
Speaking to Yahoo, Richard E. Grant, who plays a First Order General, has commented on what he thinks will surprise fans most about the movie: “The big character plot twist that I had no idea would be coming. It made total emotional sense and story sense and I thought that was really smart. And I think that’s an incredible thing to take something that began with the first movie in 1977 and nine movies later reach a conclusion/resolution.”
