Star Wars Ep. VII Adds Two More Actresses

Lucasfilms announced yesterday that actresses Lupita Nyong'o (12 Years A Slave) and Gwendoline Christie (Game Of Thrones) have joined the cast of Star Wars Episode VII. Lupita is coming off hot after receiving an Oscar earlier this year. Her rise will only continue if she has a great role in the Star-Wars-verse. On the other hand Gwendoline Christie has gained the public's attention from portrayal of Brienne on Game Of Thrones and she will also be seen in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Pt. 2 next year. So overall two very impressive additions to an already impressive cast.

Brienne of Tarth as a Sith Lord is just too awesome to think about.
