It’s all well and good wanting to know what’s going down with Finn and Rey in Star Wars: The Last Jedi but you’re probably itching for some details – anything – about BB-8 and Poe Dameron's role in the upcoming Star Wars movie. Good news: you’re in luck, bad news: possible spoilers. You’ve been warned.
Let’s start with the cutest spherical droid in the entire galaxy. BB-8 will, according to Making Star Wars, be spending the majority of the movie with Finn and a character called ‘Rose’ so if you’re hoping for a big ol’ buddy road trip with Poe and BB-8 then you’re flat out of luck.
Poe, though, apparently has a nemesis in The Last Jedi in the shape of Laura Dern’s character Admiral Holdo. She’s described as the polar opposite of General Leia Organa with a far more outwardly stylish look, a long gown and she’s packing a blaster for good measure. Details on just how she locks horns with Poe are thin on the ground but, hey, it’s not hard to see how a smarmy flyboy could irritate one of the galaxy’s political elite now, is it?
