Ian McDiarmid, the man who will forever be “The Emperor” in the Star Wars saga has done an interview over at Sci Fi Wire. Here’s an excerpt:
“I think it’s terrific for me that the final film is also my character’s apotheosis. He really explodes in all his unbridled evil. Hypocrisy goes to one side and you see this creature for what he really is. It’s been interesting to play the character in the last two movies on the sidelines, and now he moves into the middle. It’s a very satisfying personal climax and a privilege.”
Its actually a very good interview. Ian also gives some details on how George offered him the role and the experience of shooting down under. Go on over and give it a read.
