STAR WARS: EPISODE VII Casting - Oscar Winner Lupita Nyongo up for Role As we wait for some official casting news from Lucasfilm for Star Wars: Episode VII, the rumors continue to pour in. The latest rumor comes from Latino Review who says 12 Years a Slave Oscar winner Lupita Nyongo has been reading for a major role that doesn’t seem to be tied into the family lines from Episodes 4-6. The site then goes on to claim to have heard that the role she is up for might be [SPOILER warning]... * * * ....that of a Sith, which would be awesome. I dont know if you saw 12 years a Slave or not, but she deserved that Best Supporting Actress award that she won at the Academy Awards. I was curious to see what would happen with her career after that win, and if she lands Star Wars shell be set for life. In my mind, being cast in a Star Wars movie will do more for her career than that Oscar she won. Well now wait a minute… now that I think about it, maybe thats not true… whatever happened to that Hayden Christensen guy? Star Wars didnt seem to help him out much, but lets face it... hes not an Oscar winner. So with an Oscar in hand and possibly doing a Star Wars movie, Nyongo looks to have a bright career ahead of her. Theres no confirmation of this news yet, but lets sit back, be patient, and see what happens! Source: GeekyTyrant
