Speaking of Snoke, who is this big bad? There are five big theories as to his true identity.
- Darth Plagueis: This evil character is introduced by Palpatine in Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith. While he's supposedly dead, he was so powerful that there's a chance he either fakes his death or is able to bring himself back from the dead.
- Boba Fett: Evidence to support this includes the fact the last time we see Boba Fett is when he's fed into the Sarlacc Pit. Could he have survived and been completely scarred by his experience?
- Jar Jar Binks: This is a long and convoluted theory, and I think it's safe to say we all hope it's not true.
- He's a Force Ghost: A Force Ghost is basically the soul of a Force-sensitive person after they die. Snoke could be the Force Ghost of Palpatine or even Darth Vader.
- He's a new guy: The fifth option is that he's simply none of the above and is just a new chacter.
