Lucasfilm, the producers of the latest Star Wars film have announced that the chief villain, with his broadsword lightsabre, will actually be Bob Holness.

Kathleen Kennedy, head of Lucasfilm said 'JJ Abrams and myself were talking about the movie and its expected performance and we both said we wanted it to be a blockbuster. So we googled 'Blockbusters' and up popped Bob Holness.

She continued 'We liked his rich tones, very evil. But we discovered he was dead which was a blow. However, we have a big budget so using the latest motion capture and robotic technology, we have reanimated his corpse. He is very good for a man of his age and vitality. Though his lightsabre technique is a little stilted.'

Asked if there were any other elements to Mr. Holness past work that attracted them, Ms. Kennedy said 'Well the first movies mentioned the Kessel Run. These films will have the Gold Run. I don't want to spoil it but Bob forces the Jedi to perfom some pretty horrific actions with regards to the Gold Run. It's amazing cinema.'
