In The Force Awakens, Supreme Leader Snoke is the massive, disfigured mastermind orchestrating the First Order's deadly assault and also the one who appears to have lured Kylo Ren to the Dark Side. Just like Rey's parents, Snoke's true identity has yet to be revealed, since the character is portrayed through CGI by actor Andy Serkis. There are a whole slew of complex theories as to who he might be, including Darth Plagueis, Boba Fett, and Jar Jar Binks (no, seriously). If Serkis is to be trusted, there's also a strong possibility that the supervillain is none of the above, since the actor assured Entertainment Weekly that audiences have never laid eyes on Snoke:
"He's a new character in this universe. It is very much a newly-introduced character. He's aware of what's gone on, in the respect that he has been around and is aware of prior events. I think it'd be fair to say that he is aware of the past to a great degree."
Since the First Order suffered a crushing blow from the Rebellion at the conclusion of Episode VII, we're hoping the next film delves deeper into who Snoke truly is.
