Despite that Snoke never left the ship and he issued his commands to his officers while onboard. ![]() After the destruction of the Hoznian System, Snoke decided that it was time for the sole Mega-class Star Destroyer of the First Order to emerge into the Galaxy and reveal it's existence. Although many Resistance officers believed that such a ship as the Supremacy truly existed, no one was even close in interpreting it's real size. Snoke insisted that a planet would be selected after the revival of the Old Galactic Empire.ĭuring the Cold War between the Resistance and the First Order, Snoke kept the Supremacy hidden within the Unknown Regions. It would serve as the Order's capital and HQ, despite many of the Order's allies arguing for having a planet to act as it's capital. The Supremacy was developed by the Kuat-Entralla Engineering and was ordered by Supreme Leader Snoke himself. An enemy warship's last known trajectory yielded trillions of potential destinations, but the system could assess them with terrifying speed. A static hyperspace field generated around the machines accelerated their processing power to unheard-of levels. By using this kind of technology, the Supremacy was able of tracking enemy vessels even if they were travelling through the Hyperspace. The Shipboard Tracking Control Complex made use of large data banks filled with battle reports of centuries. Probably one of the most impressive features of this ship, except from it's size, would be it's highly sophisticated Hyperspace Tracking Mechanism, which had it's roots since the days of the Empire and of the Tarkin Initiative. Tractor beam projectors would be also utilized by the warship's defences and weaponry. ![]() It would also make use of it's heavy ion cannons into battle and of it's anti-ship missile tubes. The main armament of this monstrosity was the heavy turbolaser cannon. For more with Ivan Manzella, you can check out his episode of Force Material.Ships like the Finalizer could fit in the hangars of the Supremacy.ĭue to the Dreadnought's shear size, it would be self-explanatory for the ship to possess thousands, if not tens of thousands, of weapon systems. Still, he was an important part of the movies and this does provide a little insight into how he came to be. For many, he proved to be a bit anticlimactic as a villain. Snoke was arguably one of the most controversial elements of all. But it also ended up being largely controversial in the end. The Star Wars sequel trilogy was a huge financial success, taking in more than $4.4 billion at the global box office. But he kind of evolved and got a little bit softer, I think." I quite liked the idea of him having a marble skin type, all the veining like you get in marble, and these piercing, blue eyes. He originally had that hole in the side of his face taken out, it was really kind of nasty stuff going on. they made his face a bit more friendlier, he went more to a flesh color and some of his face was softened up a bit so it wasn't so graphic. What they did to him there is they got rid of some of his. You don't really see much, he's a hologram, I guess. "He was quite graphic in that first iteration, in Force Awakens. Ivan Manzella also discussed during the interview how Snoke evolved between The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. Following his surprising death in The Last Jedi, it was revealed in The Rise of Skywalker that Palpatine created Snoke to help corrupt Kylo Ren. Indeed, there were abundant theories running rampant online regarding Snoke's true identity. He was my Hammer reference, kind of thing." The maquette, there's elements of Peter Cushing, just the cheekbone and the profile and stuff, but he wasn't meant to be Peter Cushing. Because there were always Snoke theories that he was Grand Moff Tarkin, which I always found quite amusing. ![]() Ultimately, Ivan Manzella took inspiration from another famous Star Wars villain, Grand Moff Tarkin, who was played by Peter Cushing. It's impossible to say whether or not it would have been for the better, but it certainly would have been remarkably different. Had Snoke remind a female it certainly would have shifted the dynamic quite a bit. ![]() Then, from then on, it just became the male." And that was it, and no one else did any more. So either it was just in passing or something. Because the first image I did I based on a female, but then that just very quickly went away. "I think initially when they spoke about her, was female.
