Star Wars Spin-Off: 10 Characters Felicity Jones Could Be Playing
Felicity Jones has to be playing one of these characters in the 2016 spinoff.
British actress Felicity Jones may have been wasted in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 as "Felicia" (a character most fans were hoping to see become the Black Cat had the franchise survived), but The Theory Of Everything star now looks set to find blockbuster success with a leading role in Godzilla director Gareth Edwards' secretive Star Wars spin-off. The Oscar nominated actress beat the likes of Rooney Mara (The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo) and Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) to win the part, but who exactly she is going to play remains a mystery. There have been rumours that the spin-off which is set to be released on December 16th, 2016 will focus on a group of bounty hunters hired by the Rebels to steal the plans for the first Death Star, but like most Star Wars rumours from the past year or so, it's impossible to say if it's true. Either way, there are a lot of possibilities. The Expanded Universe stories are no longer canon, but that frees Disney and Lucasfilm up in some ways to take whatever they want (if anything) from those and reshape it as they see fit, delivering a new take on a face familiar only to the most hardcore Star Wars fans.There are any number of characters who would potentially be a great fit for Felicity Jones in the Star Wars Universe, and seeing what the talented and beautiful 31 year old actress brings to a Galaxy Far, Far Away is exciting regardless of how familiar you are with her past projects. With Breaking Bad star Aaron Paul rumoured for a leading role in the spin-off as well (there are those who believe he will definitely play Han Solo), the spin-off's shaping up to be one of 2016's most exciting movies, and seeing Jones bring any of the following ten leading ladies to the big screen would be amazing...
