Star Wars drops brand new teaser for The Last Jedi
While fans continue to speculate the mysteries surrounding Supreme Leader Snoke’s identity and role in The Last Jedi, it seems some new information has arrived.
Last week a Star Wars figurine leak appeared to reveal the villain’s real name as Victor.
Now Star Wars theorist Mike Zeroh reckons he’s worked out the identity of Snoke’s Guards of Evil, who appear below Victor on the same inventory leak.
In his new YouTube video, he said: “These are definitely Praetorian Guards for Supreme Leader Snoke.”

Zeroh continued: “[It seems] from this inventory list they will in fact be called the Guards of Evil.
“Given how they are right below Snoke [on the list] with his throne and just Supreme Leader Snoke, the Guards of Evil are definitely Praetorian Guardians.
“We do know that there’s going to be seven to ten of them and they will be aligned in single file on each side of Supreme Leader Snoke’s throne room aboard his Mega Star Destroyer.”
“What I like about the name Guards of Evil, is it really has that medieval tone to it as well.”
Are Snoke's Guards of Evil really his Praetorian Guards?
He added: “If you look at The Force Awakens there were a lot of medieval inspirational pieces, such as the castle and cross guard lightsaber.
“And when we’re coming into The Last Jedi [consider] shooting in Dubrovnik, Croatia…medievalesque stuff…and Finn’s horse.
“It seems like Star Wars: The Sequel Trilogy is really embracing this medieval background.”
Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi will be released in UK cinemas on December 15, 2017.
