Read more about Supreme Leader Snoke at: Wikipedia Official Site: LucasFilm Supreme Leader Snoke is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise. He is a CGI character voiced and performed by Andy Serkis. Snoke was created by J. J. Abrams, Lawrence Kasdan, and Michael Arndt for the 2015 film Star Wars: The Force Awakens, in which he is introduced as the Supreme Leader of the First Order, a rogue military junta formed from the fallen Galactic Empire. The character appears as a main villain in the first two films of the sequel trilogy—The Force Awakens (2015) and The Last Jedi (2017)—and is referenced in The Rise of Skywalker (2019). The Star Wars fictional universe establishes Snoke as a Force-sensitive artificial being who was created by Emperor Palpatine to reclaim control of the galaxy. As Palpatine's puppet ruler, Snoke seduces Ben Solo to serve the First Order as the commander Kylo Ren. Aside from the films, Snoke appears in related Star Wars media. Snoke's appearance changed throughout principal photography and post-production of The Force Awakens. Serkis said, "It's the first time I've been on set not yet knowing what the character's gonna look like. I mean, talk about secrecy!" According to the actor, the character's appearance, voice, and movements evolved as he and the film's writer/director J. J. Abrams challenged the visual effects team. According to The Force Awakens senior sculptor Ivan Manzella, "Snoke almost became a female at one point. J. J. picked out a maquette he liked and then we took it to a full-size version, sculpted in plasteline. J. J. and [creature creative supervisor Neal Scanlan] didn't want him to be old and decrepit, like [ Emperor Palpatine ] ."
