6. John Noble Will Play the Villain
Has this one already been debunked or has the run around of Internet rumors finally come full circle. A little while ago it was rumored that John Noble (Denethor in Return of the King) would star as the villain in Episode VII. While this rumor seems to go unconfirmed by all parties it is apparent that JJ Abrams is a big fan of Noble's work and he is clearly a good choice to play either a sith lord or an remnant imperial officer. More than likely both men had yet to even consider the possibility... until all of Star Wars fandom gave them the idea. Not only would Noble be great, but he is in Abrams line of sight. Look for him on the new posters to come.
