Star Wars: Episode VII is in full pre-production swing, and rumored actors auditioning for the main roles are starting to leak out. Seems that Jesse Plemons, best known for recently playing the clueless, yet deranged, Todd from Breaking Bad, might be up for one of the key roles of Episode VII.
Plemons is set to meet with J.J. Abrams after a well received audition tape, and many are speculating by his looks that he might play Luke Skywalker’s son. I guess he looks similar to Mark Hamill, even though he always struck me as a red-headed Matt Damon. He actually did play the young version of Matt Damon in All the Pretty Horses, and has been in such recent movies as Battleship and The Master. But if you are a Breaking Bad fan, you know him as Todd, and absolutely hated that character. Not a bad hatred whatsoever. It just means he played that part very well.
There are a few other names that have been thrown out there for roles ins Star Wars: Episode VII. After I check out the information I will be posting about those names.
