Rumours began swirling this week that Yoda may be making a surprise appearance in Star Wars Episode VIII after the character's voice actor and puppeteer, Frank Oz, was said to be making his way to the movie's Pinewood Studios set.

While many fans have already speculated that Oz is perhaps working as a puppetry advisor for the film's practical effects, the much more exciting implication is that Yoda may be making a shock cameo.

Though Rian Johnson and co. will need to be careful not to make the part mere gratuitous fan service, it's going to be hard for even the most sensible fan to not get goosebumps if Yoda appears on-screen once again. As for how? Presumably as a ghost, perhaps to impart some much-needed wisdom to Rey.
