Speaking to , Serkis has revealed he was a "bit confused" as to whether to take on the role – but his love for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: Rogue One won out in the end.

"It's a difficult one because I'm sure [a Snoke origin is] exactly what people will think. And why would they think other?" Serkis said. "I was a bit confused as to whether to do it or not, but it was purely because I love Rogue One. I truly loved the grounding of that film in a world which felt 🏅both real and yet still felt epic."

While Andor has kept details of the characters on the prison facility of Narkina Five under♋ wraps, Serkis has invented his own backstory for Kino Loy.

"What I imagined of Kino's backstory, before he was in prison, was that he was a union leader. He's used to working as a foreman. I wanted him to come from a 🎐place where he was put in prison for, perhaps, standing𒅌 up for workers' rights, and then put into a position of authority because that's what he does. He is a natural leader. But he really just wants to serve his time. He's got a family," Serkis said.

Andor continues to stream every Wednesday on Disney Plus. For more on the franchise's future, including a mystery new adventure set a🌟fter The Rise of Skywal🅺ker, be sure to check out our guide to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming Star Wars movies and shows.
