Tons of STAR WARS Episode 2 & 3 rumors, casting and GIGANTIC SPOILERS if true

Hey folks, Harry here. The following spy is a NEW one, so that means on STAR WARS stuff that we'll just have to wait and see how the beans fall. All of this is unconfirmed and you should invest your own faith carefully here. There are spoilers here throughout, though the most INTENSE SPOILERS are saved for the spy's 'PS' statement, and I do a major spoiler warning before hand. To save you from having to read the spoilers the following spy claims that GABRIEL BYRNE is confirmed to be playing a jedi. That a 16 year old Aunt Beru will be cast and announced on the official site in 3 days. 'The Source' also says that Ryan Phillipe is no longer attached. Boba Fett has allegedly not been cast yet. And a great deal of casting will be announced throughout the month of June. And he claims that the Jimmy Smits casting that appeared first on Coming Attractions is actually part of the same hoax as the Darth Kimball rumor, though until this spy's credits are built up... I'm not sure on that. Now.... read at your own risk...

Hello. consider me 'the source' close to the official casting of Ep2...no blockbuster yet, though Let's save you time and get to the point...and there is a strory spoiler at the end...

As you know from some sites like theforce.net, Gabriel Byrne as been rumored for a role, and it was up to him to decipher if he wanted the role or not. What was NOT reported was the role itself.

Anyway, Byrne will play a jedi warrior who aides Bail Organa, General Kenobi, and the republic against the sith and mandolrians in the clone wars. His role is of most importance in the second episode and it is not reported if he will be in ep3. Probably not as the negotiations are for ep2 only. In other words, he will most likely not live through the film.

Well, it will be announced in a few short days from Lyn Hale, spokesperson for LucasFilm, along with what we remember as Aunt Beru to Luke Skywalker, as a 16 year old in this episode, and a new villian, however, the word is that the next sith has yet to be cast.

The villian is expected to be among the Mandalorians and not a sith. Remember, there is more to the story than just jedi/sith, remember that. That is why filming is not moving ahead as quickly as we might wish...though it has begun before Hayden, contrary to popular belief...and will span til September at least. Not to mention sceenes for Tattoine in Italy.

This, along with the casting for Beru, at age 16, will be made public within 3 days via press releases and the official site at http://www.starwars.com

Owen lars is another piece that they are trying to fill currently. It has been reported that is what Colin Hanks was considered for as a 'favor' role, but I cannot confirm that yet.

Remember, He fought with Kenobi/Anakin...though it was really Bail Organa that played a large role. He, Beru, Fett, and a sith still remain uncast. No, Ryan Phillipe is NOT Bail Organa...you would have known already. Though it is inside fact that Lucasfilm's Lyn Hale will announce most of them at once. Smaller roles will play an exception. This will all be complete by late June, however.

As for the next sith, there is no solid information yet. And no word on Boba Fett, either. However, it has been confirmed that Method Man will NOT be boba fett, though you must already know that.

PS. Smits is NOT to be cast. It IS a hoax and has been linked to the sources of the Darth Kimbel rumor. I will tell you one thing though, there is room for a few more prominant Jedi that Gurland is scouting, as well as a few locals with heights of 6'4-6'8. Men that is. There is also some rumblings on Female Jedi's who are now being held for auditions down under. I cannot honestly tell you the status on that.

Remember, there is a lot more going on in the story than the characters we are familiar with. Get ready for a big 2 weeks for casting...including Beru.

BTW, there is NO boba fett cast yet, and let's make it clear that there is NO sith cast yet either. Lynn Hale will announce when when gurland has found the right candidate. That might be old news though.

"The source"

FOLKS!!! BEWARE! IF 'the source' is a truthful spy, and if he's shooting straight.... then the following will be developments that most of you WILL NOT WANT TO KNOW! So this is an advance warning. Until the info on his casting stuff pans out and we see if he's shooting lead or blanks... if you do read the following... Discuss this stuff only amongst fellow spoiler fans in areas that are clearly marked as being spoiler locations. READ THE FOLLOWING AT YOUR OWN RISKS!!! And respect others' rights not to know as well. Thanks... and here ya go.... Harry out...

PS. The spoiler. You don't have to believe this, but you have been warned. 3....2.....1...

Bail Organ/Anakin/Queen will be the triangle, not kenobi, #1. However, the real spoiler is how it is presented. Anakin and the queen do NOT start out together. In fact, the queen is to be married to bail, in a political move. To reunite the republic and each respective worlds.

However, Anakin sways Amidala that that in itself will spark the problem among them. Even though Bail is to marry her for politics, he DOES have feelings for her. There is a REASON she gives leia to him when she must in Ep3...

As well, we will discover the real father of Anakin Skywalker...and not to mention why Jedi's some die by disappearing and others do not. The real reason? Those that do NOT disappear, like Vader/Qui Gon...are NOT prepared to die. In this episode, at least it is known within the 'circle' that jedi's, as powerful as they are, must 'give in' if you will. As well, we see Kenobi wil have a VERY strong friendship with Anakin, but what you may not know is that this episode he, along with the Jedi, will be blamed for the death of Anakin's mother.

You may know that...but what you may not know is that it was orcastrated by Palpatine, the same way vader does it to luke. Understand the pattern here.

And who is the father of Anakin? I swear, you BETTER know this...

Understand the REAL reason anakin was a slave in a remote planet.

Again, you do NOT have to believe me, but remember, you were warned...just wait til it all unfolds. Especially the casting...
