RUMOR: 'The Leftovers' star Justin Theroux may have a role in director Rian Johnson's 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' as an "expert slicer."
Star Wars: The Last Jedi will feature the long-awaited return of fan-favorite heroes including Rey and Finn, but it will also introduced a handful of brand new characters to the saga. Now, Making Star Wars reports a rumor that The Leftovers star Justin Theroux will have a role in the highly anticipated film and shared details on his alleged character.
Making Star Wars writes:
Theroux will be playing “an expert slicer” and we’re hearing he has a pivotal moment. His costume is pretty interesting as well. Imagine Indiana Jones’ white tuxedo from Temple of Doom but weirder and with a Star Wars twist. Theroux’s character wears a white tuxedo style jacket over a black suit. His sequences fit into the casino section of the film where we saw Dubrovnik exteriors shot last year.
