Star Wars- Oscar Isaac Says Characters Will be “Tested Intensely” in Episode VIII

Oscar Isaac (Poe Dameron) has stated that the characters in Star Wars Episode VIII will be “tested intensely”.

Isaac was recently promoting his latest film X-Men: Apocalypse, in which he stars as the titular villain Apocalypse, when he talked about Star Wars Episode VIII briefly. He said:

“Well, I’m around, first of all, which is nice. Poe, he gets to be more a part of the story, and all of the characters in the film, they get tested, intensely.  It’s a lot of conflict in it, which is great.”

Oscar’s comments that he still gets to be around are a reference to the fact that Poe was originally going to die early on in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. However, director JJ Abrams and co-writer Lawrence Kasdan changed the script so that the character would stick around.

Star Wars Episode VIII opens on December 15th, 2017.
