Lupita Nyong'o is finally revealing her Star Wars role. And giving us a sneak peek at her high tech filming. Check it inside, plus Will Smith and the Suicide Squad get laced up in costume in first flicks for the film...
Lupita Nyong'o is gearing up to take over the film word again. After being cast in the soon-to-be legendary Star Wars VII film a year ago, details are now starting to emerge. She will be playing the role of Maz Kanata. According to Star Wars Wookieepedia:
Maz Kanata was a female pirate. Around thirty years after the Battle of Endor, she owned a castle which played host to travelers, smugglers and other riff raff.
She's featured in Vanity Fair on the high tech set of the film (above) where her facial features are being reproduced for all the on screen effects.
A small galaxy’s worth of tracking dots affixed to Lupita Nyong’o’s face allowed artists at Industrial Light & Magic to transform her into the C.G.I. character Maz Kanata.
