Benicio Del Toro's character in Star Wars: The Last Jedi could become your new favorite spacefaring scoundrel. Fan site Making Star Wars has put together some detective work to reveal some details about the actor's role in the upcoming film, and it looks like he'll be a very shady character with a surprisingly nice ship.
According to the site, Del Toro's character may be named D.J., though that could also just be his codename for production. He's decked out entirely in black, wearing a trenchcoat and a blaster holster slung on his hip just like Han Solo. People who follow the rules use blaster rifles and loose cannons use blaster pistols, that's just how these things work. The character has short hair covered by an unusual "bill-less cap" and, overall, he looks like a slightly sleazy throwback to another time.
It sounds like Del Toro's character comes across as a bit rough around the edges, so how'd he get his hands on such a luxurious ship? Maybe he won it off of Lando Calrissian in a sabacc game. That guy has the worst luck.
