The Force Might Be Strong with Jesse Plemons

Casual viewers don't know Jesse Plemons by name, but they recognize his face from Breaking Bad, Friday Night Lights or maybe even Battleship or PTA's The Master. Expect that to change, if this goes down.

The Wrap reports he is up for a lead role in Star Wars: Episode VII. He passed the first round, taping an audition for casting directors and will meet with helmer J.J. Abrams next week.

The assumption game suggests he would be Luke Skywalker's son. No, he doesn't have a passing resemblance to Mark Hamill (who, by the time, is still not confirmed to return). Unless Hamill was played by Matt Damon. But they have both have sandy, blonde hair. And that's all you need to pass for movie logic.
