Jar Jar Binks to Play PIVOTAL Role in Star Wars Episode VII

Jar Jar Binks to Play Pivotal Role in Star Wars Episode VII

Now that it has been officially confirmed that prolific producer/director J.J. Abrams is to direct the next installment of the enormously successful franchise of Star Wars recently acquired by Disney with their multi-billion dollar purchase of Lucasfilm from George Lucas, rumors circulate concerning the essence of it all:  the story, the plot.

Lucas and Kathleen Kennedy have a cinematic relationship stretching back to the early Indiana Jones movies.  However, the dynamic duo remains tight-lipped about any hints concerning the story and direction of the next Star Wars adventure.  Any and all attempts to peel away even a scrap of a clue that would reveal anything about the next movie have been met with *imperial* resistance.  Until now, for an insider has leaked an astonishing insight into a highly probable story arc involving a major character from Star Wars Episode I:  The Phantom Menace.

Not too many specifics were released; but, enough so that fans can get a somewhat clear image of a central theme in Episode VII.  “The return of a character who was unfairly bashed over the years would settle the score,” an insider confided.  “This character was loved by so many, and bashed by people with hateful hearts.  His comedy and lightheartedness served to counter-balance the darker tidings to come, and yet he was met with a cool response by many fans.  We seek to change this, and Jay [J.J. Abrams] has backed-up this story arc wholeheartedly.  It is time to restore this character to his rightful status in the Star Wars pantheon.  So, it was decided that this character would have an extended lifespan, that he would have developed “Jedi-like powers” and complete his training as a Jedi Knight under a surprising tutelage.  His role would be crucial, pivotal to saving some of the Skywalkers.  Yeah, sure, he might sacrifice himself in so doing, but at least in that final act, there would be another level of redemption for the character, thus permanently elevating the character to a rightful and well-deserved status in the strata of Star Wars fandom.  People will never look at Jar Jar the same way again.  This grand story arc will bring to a conclusion the epic journey of a Gungan who began as a fool, grew into a diplomat and finally “graduated” as a full-fledged Jedi Knight.  Fans will certainly rally for the return and the ultimate redemption of Jar Jar Binks, especially when they learn a great and hidden secret about his past and his true role in the Star Wars universe.”

When pressed further about these secrets, the insider stated that he/she could not continue, that too much had already been revealed.

Well, there you have it.  A first glimpse into a possible plot/story/character twist from a long time ago, and a galaxy far, far away…
