Rumor John Noble to play villian?

He would have made a fantastic villain.

 

Well I'll keep hope. I mean there's been dozens of times that actors have denied involvement in JJ Abrams films *even when they are*. Who knows? Maybe he is and he's just being as secretive as JJ is on a daily basis

 

That's true too, he is well known for his secretive nature regarding his projects.

 

Let's not forget Ewan denying being cast for TPM.

 

Indeed, there was a time when we thought Abrams wouldn't be the director of Episode VII. Noble also said "I'd be quite happy if J.J. made that decision."

 

The thing with JJ Abrams is whatever he says...he usually means the opposite. He's just secretive that way.
