Star Wars adds Lupita Nyong’o and Gwendoline Christie

Let me start off by saying that I was totally rightEntertainment Weekly is reporting that Lupita Nyong’o has been cast in Star Wars: Episode VII – The Ancient Fear. She wasn’t in that cast photo from a couple weeks ago, which is just as well cause her dickbag brother probably would have shoved Harrison Ford out of the way just so he could be in the shot.

Nyong’o will be joined by another amazing actress, Gwendoline Christie, better known as Brienne of Tarth on Game of Thrones.

Not sure what their roles will be, but how cool would it be to have a female Sith in the mix? I’d like to say we’ll report on this as it develops, but this is a J.J. Abrams film, so to get any plot info you’d probably have to read some secret graphic novel and play some ARG or some shit.
