It turns out that Bale, just like a lot of us is a massive fan of the franchise and during a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he revealed that it has always been his dream to play a Stormtrooper in a Star Wars project and for a pretty hilarious reason. However, if you’d ask the fandom, most of them believe that Bale is too big of an actor to be playing a clumsy trooper. His recent confession convinced many of them that he should play a different villain instead and that is none other than Grand Admiral Thrawn. The iconic Star Wars baddie is gearing up for his live-action debut in Ahsoka but Lucasfilm has yet to reveal which actor has been cast for the part. Do you think Christian would be a good choice for Thrawn? Check out some of the tweets here:
